A Corporate History of Kuntz Electroplating Inc.

Nearly 75 years ago, on October 16, 1948, our grandfather, Oscar Kuntz, turned his entrepreneurial dream into reality. His far-reaching decision to found his own company – Kuntz Electroplating Inc. – marked the beginning of over 6 decades of continuous successful family entrepreneurship, high quality manufacturing and community involvement.

As the business has passed from the first to the second and now the third generation, the personal and entrepreneurial legacy of Oscar and his sons David, Bob, and Paul and now Robert, Dave and Michael continues to define our mandate for the future…
