CEP Cast Engineering Products Closing
Today, I received the sad news that another local Southern California die casting company competitor is closing. CEP (Cast Engineered Products), is closing their doors. CAST and ENGINEERED PRODUCTS was located at 1746 West 135th Street, Gardena, CA 90249-2508 Telephone Voice:310.323.8460 Sales@cepUSA.com. I have known the owner, Ismail Cuhadar over 30 years. Ismail had over 35 years of experience in the die casting and metals industries. Ismail is a graduate of The University of Southern California and holds Master of Science and Professional Engineer degrees in Mechanical and Design Engineering. I met him when he worked at El Monte Tool and Die Casting Company. Ismail then went to Modern Die Casting Company / Sunny Die Casting Company before he started CEP.
In 1994, Ismail founded CEP in Downey, CA out of Modern/Sunny. Then in 2001, he moved its operations to the larger facility in Gardena, CA to manufacture aluminum and zinc die castings, bronze and copper-nickel porous powder metal parts and other engineered products. I always enjoyed spending time with Ismail, I wish him safety, health and happiness.

We Are Making Parts Discount
For over 25 years, Kinetic Die Casting Company has been making aluminum die casting parts and zinc die casting parts for our manufacturing partners.
Before this Covid-19 Coronavirus slowdown, we were making parts 50 hours a week. When the pandemic caused the slowdown we felt a reduction of production purchase orders from our customers. In March and April, we had to cut back our production hours to 32 hours a week. In May, we are increasing our production hours to 40 hours to prepare for the following purchase order discount.
Discounts on Purchase Orders
On all part production purchase orders Kinetic Die Casting Company receives the first two weeks of May (4th to 15th) we will discount the part price ten percent (10%) from a prior purchase order part price with the same quantity, if your scheduled delivery is before June 30, 2020.
To get the discount, email your purchase order to sales@kineticdc.com or
fax your order to 818-982-0877 before May 16, 2020
