History of a Great Manufacture & State – Marvel – Wisconsin

 
 

Manufacturing in Wisconsin really started to take off in the 1840, That is 180 years of strong manufacturing tradition.

I know there are some pretty old people out there today but I’m pretty sure there aren’t any 180- year olds around to tell us the stories of what it was like back then.

Fortunately for us, we have mother google and history books to look back on to learn more about some of these great manufacturers.

On today’s Premier Post Minute, I’m wanted to speak about Marvel Company

Back in the early 1900’s the Armstrong and Blum families owned independent manufacturing shops in Chicago. The two families became close friends that belonged to the same parish and shared a mutual interest in manufacturing which led to them merge their two companies. By 1906 they built their first power driven hack saw when they realized that they could build a far superior product. as the saying goes “The rest is history”

Today, Marvel Saws operates out of a large facility in Oshkosh, WI and employees 100 people. Yes, in Oshkosh Wisconsin right in the middle of this great state. They have been there for over 50 years. Marvel offers highest quality metal cutting and band saws. Marvel is leading the industry in saw cutting technology to help increase customers throughput and efficiency.
