Rockford Products Forms Three Continent Alliance
John Wolz
Three coldforming fastener manufacturers from the North America, Europe and Asia formed an alliance to gain access to global markets.
Rockford Products Corporation of Rockford, IL USA, Altenloh, Brinck & Company of Germany and Osaka Rashi of Japan, formed the International Coldforming Alliance.
Rockford has been in business more than 70 years and manufactures fasteners and precision coldformed components.
Rockford CEO Ray Wood said ICA brings together three closely held and private coldforming companies with complementary strengths to create an international marketing, sourcing and manufacturing alliance with 15 locations.
In addition to broadening access to international markets, the alliance “speeds response times, and allows each of the members to call upon each other�s technical resources and intimate understanding of local conditions,” according to the announcement.
ICA also will share technology and joint development projects.
“Our partnership in ICA fortifies our already comprehensive product line, enhances our ability to service existing international customers, and expands and solidifies our position in emerging international markets,” Wood said.
