Sanders Industries began as a holding company in 1985 when it acquired the assets of Torrance Elastomerics Corporation. Since then, we have built on the legacies of successful entrepreneurs—expanding through organic growth and through domestic and international acquisitions. Today we operate specialty polymer and metal manufacturing businesses that create a vast array of products for customers across a broad spectrum of markets. The company is headquartered near Los Angeles, in Buena Park, California.
Strategic Acquisitions We look for middle-market OEM manufacturers of niche products. We seek to preserve their successful foundations and founding spirits while guiding them through new stages of growth.

Customers Across Markets Today, Sanders companies are grouped under two separate operating platforms—polymer and metal manufacturing. They supply OEM customers with products that are designed for tight tolerance requirements, high-performance applications, or that require specialized manufacturing technologies. Our companies often have rich, long operating histories—some have been in operation for more than 100 years—proudly serving the specialized manufacturing needs of Fortune 500 corporations, government agencies, and prime- and sub-prime contractors across many different industries.
