Cascade had a long history of being a great supplier here in California and Cascade Die Casting/ Pacific will be missed by their former employees, their suppliers and their customers who need aluminum die casting parts.
Kinetic Die Casting continues to be strong while other die casting companies are closing down or selling out.

An aluminum die-casting firm bought by a publicly traded company in 1996 has returned to private hands under its former name, Pace Industries Inc. Leggett & Platt Inc. said today that it had sold its aluminum die-casting unit to its management and Kenner & Company Inc., a New York-based private equity firm that was the former owner of Pace. Pace will maintain its headquarters at Fayetteville. The company has 19 manufacturing sites in 14 cities in the U.S. and Mexico, and is the largest privately owned custom non-automotive die-casting company in North America. Scott Bull, chief executive officer of Pace, said he and other executives would begin a seven-day tour Friday of the company’s sites to meet with plant managers, employees, media and local community leaders.
Leggett & Platt Inc. acquired Pace from Kenner & Co. in 1996.
