A Brief History of
the IPC Foundry Group - Utah

Larry Veenker and John Williams outside of Intermountain Precision Casting.

Intermountain Precision Casting

Intermountain Precision Casting began business in 1980. After growing up in the investment casting industry in California, Larry Veenker brought his knowledge of the lost wax process to Brigham Young University, where he taught for several years. Over time, Larry began preparations for starting an investment casting foundry in Utah. His first step was calling upon the organizational and management skills of John Williams to help run the company. Soon after, they opened their doors in Lindon, just 30 minutes from Salt Lake City, and began serving numerous businesses throughout the state. Over time, the company grew and expanded its footprint into dozens of industries throughout the US and Canada.

Modernization

For years, we built a bedrock and reputation of treating customers right and focusing on unique nuances and details of every project. However, the demands of the industry necessitated that we adapt in order to survive.

2007 marked a turning point for us; a customer we had been serving for over 25 years left for a different foundry because we did not have the capacity to match their growth. It became clear that without modernizing our equipment, we could not keep up with the demands of the future.

We hit the ground running, adding new robotics, bringing in more staff, using state-of-the-art software, and expanding our foundry in 2015. These changes have allowed unprecedented growth and an even higher standard of excellence for our castings. Today, our Lindon foundry's production capacity is 15 times greater than five years ago.

The IPC Foundry Group

As our growth trajectory continued, we forged partnerships with numerous machining, prototyping, 3D printing, finishing, and other metalworking facilities. In 2022, we marked a significant milestone by acquiring Highland Lakes Casting, now seamlessly integrated into the IPC Foundry Group as our Texas facility. Through substantial investments totaling millions of dollars, we've modernized production throughout our facilities, created numerous additional jobs, and expanded our reach across a multitude of industries.

To underscore the breadth of our enhanced network of investment casting and metalworking services, we proudly unveiled a unified identity in late 2023—the IPC Foundry Group.

With substantial investment, IPC is poised to not only uphold its 40+ year legacy of producing quality castings but also embrace new opportunities and challenges in an ever-evolving industrial landscape. We look forward to serving you even better as the IPC Foundry Group!
