About Us


Tom Carson Jr. and Matt Carson

Carson Castings was founded in 1956 by the late Thomas F. Carson Sr. who started the firm after successful careers as both an attorney and as a master distributor for the now-defunct Kaiser Fraizer automobile company.

Thomas F. Carson Jr. joined the company in 1962 and assisted his father in managing the firm through a tremendous growth period in the late 60’s and early 70’s. Control of the company passed to Thomas F. Carson Jr. in the late 1970’s. A proud family tradition continued when a third generation of Carsons came on board in 1999 when Matthew A. Carson joined the company.

With our two offices in Ohio and Iowa, we cover a radius of approximately 500 miles. Within that territory, we have many valued and loyal clients. We are proud that we still have business relationships with both customers and partner foundries that date back to the 1960’s.

Another aspect of our business that has stayed constant for the past 50 years is our commitment. At Carson Castings, we are committed to the business of castings and machining. We sell no other products. You will see through our superior products and personable employees that our commitment means a higher quality result for our customers.

Even though we use the latest technology to create our products, we believe some aspects of doing business never go out of style. At Carson Castings, we pride ourselves on old-fashioned values such as being responsive and ethical. We are optimistic about the future of the industry and are committed to it for the long haul.
