In October of 1918, The Parker Rust-Proof Company of Ohio opened as a job shop licensee of the Parker Rust-Proof Company of Detroit MI. During the next several years, there were tremendous breakthroughs and discoveries in the conversion-coating, rust-proofing process, and it was eagerly adopted by the automotive and appliance industries. In addition to combating corrosion on firearms, clients used it to promote adhesion under paint and rubber bonding, for permanent lubrication on gears and bearings, and during metal forming and forging operations. During World War II, Parker also played an important role in the defense industry, as our coatings were applied to components of armaments, ammunition, airplanes, boats, tanks, stampings and fasteners. We celebrated our first century of service in 2018, and are the only remaining original job shop licensee, still applying the genuine Parkerizing, Parco Lubrite, and Bonderite/Bonderlube coatings developed by our namesake.
