About PRECISION STRIP
PRECISION STRIP was founded in 1977 in the heart of a one square mile farm town called Minster, Ohio. Since its humble beginning in the niche market of aluminum slitting PRECISION STRIP has grown to 13 locations throughout Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Alabama, Tennessee, and Michigan.
As the nation’s largest toll processor, PRECISION STRIP strives to do the exceptional every day. Our foundation was built by the associates’ dedication to providing the best customer service and being a team of collaborative problem solvers. With our in-house engineering and technical group, we believe no problem is too big. We attribute our success to the loyal associates that work here. We bleed green!
Processing:
Within our 3.6 million square feet of building space we house: 33 slitting lines, nine cut-to-length lines, five oscillate slit lines, one mechanical blanking line, one laser blanking line, one edge conditioning line, and one perforating line. We also provide leveling, stenciling and full inspection of material for surface quality, including critical inspection of Class A automotive. The metal types we process include carbon, stainless steel, aluminum, and copper.
Material Storage, Packaging & Transport:
Each plant location is strategically located to provide JIT warehousing and delivery service to the automotive, appliance, industrial products and beverage can industry. Our unique packaging and material handling techniques improve coil handling efficiency and reduce coil damage. All of our facilities are equipped to ship and receive material by truck, and most are equipped to ship and receive by rail.

PRECISION STRIP, Inc. was founded in 1977 by Jack Eiting, Marie Eiting, Tom Wente, and Don Craft, along with Joan Eilerman. Our original operations included a used slitting line located in a 15,500 sq. ft. building in Minster, Ohio. Our founders' original intent was to remain a small company that serviced its customers well, and some of our first associates often comment that there were never going to be more than nine associates. However, the exceptional customer service and commitment to providing a quality product by our early associates led to an ever increasing demand for our services, and the company quickly began a growth pattern that has never stopped.
Over the years we have earned a reputation for being the world’s premier toll processor. We provide the most diverse array of services in the industry, continually advance technologically, and make a commitment to partnering with our customer for our mutual success. The long tenure of our associates, as well as the lengthy customer relationships we have established, speak to the company’s values and our commitment to people.
Today we have grown to approximately 1,300 associates at 13 locations. Our facilities include more than 3.6 million square feet of building space, 33 slitting lines, nine cut-to-length lines, five oscillate slitting lines, one mechanical blanking line, one edge conditioning line, and one perforating line. We also operate a fleet of more than 200 tractor-trailers units. Over the years we have broken ground more than 50 times for new buildings or expansions to our current facilities.
