HISTORY

Our History

Since our beginning, Automatic Spring Products Corp. has been dedicated to serving our customers, our employees and our community with excellence.

From a very humble start in the mid-20th century as a small spring shop, ASPC has grown to a multi-plant North American manufacturer with global reach. Our growth over the years has been fueled by a combination of superior product design, vertically integrated manufacturing, our 0 PPM strategy and our continually expanding BHAG product and process offerings.
