CaneKast™, Inc. Announces Acquisition of Superior Aluminum Castings

CHASKA, Minnesota, May 19, 2021 – CaneKast™ and its companies Ermak Foundry & Machining, Patriot Foundry & Castings and RDS Dock Hardware have acquired Superior Aluminum Castings of Independence, Missouri.

We are building a network of facilities that will provide the benefits of a small business yet have state-of-the-art technology typically only found in large conglomerates. Superior is a great fit to help us achieve this vision.”
