“Now more than ever, companies are looking for ways to efficiently grow business,” said Scott Bull, CEO, Pace Industries. “This acquisition not only helps us achieve that goal but strengthens our position and expands our capabilities in the zinc die casting sector.” The acquisition significantly increases the size of Pace Industries’ zinc operations, which puts the company in a much stronger position to serve its customers.

Royal Die Casting Company
Royal Die Casting Company
1816 N. Keystone St.
Burbank, California 91504
For many years, Royal Die Casting Company was located in Burbank California. Royal Die Casting is Closed. Royal was a small diecasting company that catered to Aerospace and connector companies. Royal Diecasting assisted Glenair Connectors by shipping them connectors (overflow work). Glenair has their own die casting department but many times sent work to Royal. Joe Cruz produced parts for other die casting companies also.
Royal Die Casting Company was founded by Joe Cruz and three silent partners. This diecasting company was small and did not need many customers to stay in business.
Over the last 10 years, Joe tried several times to sell Royal Die Casting Company. 80% of Royal’s business was concentrated in four customers. Also during that time, the economy tanked reducing those four customer’s sales. Then Royal lost two of those customers, about 50% of Royal’s total sales, to inexpensive and unreliable offshore suppliers. In the last few years, Joe was terribly ill and could not operate his company. Sadly, Royal Die Casting was forced to close in 2009.
Kinetic Die Casting Company is only a few miles away from where Royal Die Casting was located and offered to assist Royal’s customers. Another die casting company was already helping Joe to transition away. Kinetic Die Casting Company is still available to help. If anyone is interested in a local die casting company, that can produce parts that was being made at Royal Die Casting, give us a call at Kinetic Die Casting Company 800-524-8083. Or send an email to sales@kineticdiecasting.com.

C and D Die Casting Company
Twice in the last three days, I was called to visit a company that did business with C and D Diecasting Company. C&D went out of business in 2004 because of Workers Compensation issues. CD die casting company was located in Chatsworth California. Jay Clifford was the owner of C&D Die Casting, he also owned Clifford Tooling and Machining.
Jay Clifford of C D Die Casting Company sold me the tooling, mold bases and holders for die casting molds. Because I now own the holders I can produce parts for anyone that was doing business with C and D Die Casting Company.
The first company I visited, took their tool away in 2004 as C and D Die Casting was closing down and sent the tool to a die casting company in Burbank called Royal Die Casting. In 2009, Royal Die Casting Company closed also. They need parts and found my company, Kinetic Die Casting Company, through another company I purchased called Coast Die Casting Company.
The second company I visited, has not purchased parts since 2004 when C D diecasting company closed down.
I am happy they found my company and I know they are happy we can help them.

Quad City Die Casting Company Employees seeking $22,000
Former employees of Quad-City Die Casting have filed an involuntary bankruptcy petition in hopes of recovering $200,000 they say is owed them in medical bill reimbursements and vacation pay they never received.
The petition was filed last week in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Peoria, Ill.
About 100 Quad-City Die workers — including 70 members of Local 1174, United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America, or UE, — lost their jobs when the Moline plant closed in September.
Carl Rosen, regional president for UE, said instead of filing bankruptcy, Quad-City Die chose in the spring to turn over assets to a liquidation company, High Ridge Partners of Chicago. By going that route, there is no court oversight of transactions.
He said using an assignee like High Ridge “works in some cases.”
“And in some cases, if one of the creditors — or more than one — feels it (the liquidation) is not working effectively, they can ask that a bankruptcy judge intervene. The workers are requesting it become a regular bankruptcy to make sure everybody is being treated fairly.”
This week, an auction of some Quad-City Die equipment took place — but only after a bankruptcy judge granted High Ridge’s request for emergency joint motion to allow it to continue as planned.
Wells Fargo is the lead creditor for Quad-City Die. When contacted Thursday, Wells Fargo declined comment on the involuntary bankruptcy petition. Representatives of High Ridge and attorneys for Quad-City Die did not return phone calls Thursday seeking comment.
According to the emergency joint motion, High Ridge reported that this spring it had “successfully completed collection of Quad-City Die’s accounts receivable, which totaled $830,000 … and production of inventory banks for 10 major customers, resulting in additional sales of $3.1 million” over the summer. From those proceeds, $1.8 million was applied to debt owed to Wells Fargo.
The motion also reported that by continuing production and sales for about 16 weeks, High Ridge was able to rehire 23 former employees. The liquidator paid $299,000 in medical benefits stipends from employees in lieu of the self-insured medical coverage previously provided by Quad-City Die.
But Rosen said employees had to take on the additional work and were not allowed to take vacations.
“We don’t think it’s fair that the fruits of our employees’ labors, which allowed the bank to be paid down $1.8 million … (that the employees) should not be paid the full amount they are owed,” said Chicago attorney Scott Clar, who is representing the former workers in the case.
Rosen said the judge ultimately will make two decisions: Whether the court accepts full jurisdiction for the case and whether the money will be distributed immediately.
