Description

Kooima Company, established in 1988 by the father-son duo John and Phil Kooima, began as a stamping job shop and quickly evolved into a leading laser cutting specialist in the Midwest. The company installed its first laser cutter in 1993, marking a pivotal expansion into precision laser cutting of steel parts for various manufacturers. Over the years, Kooima Company has grown from a modest 16,000 square foot facility to an expansive nearly 300,000 square foot production and warehouse complex located in Rock Valley, Iowa. This growth reflects its status as a premier laser-cutting job shop serving a diverse range of industries including agriculture, construction, lawn care, tools, utility, trailer, healthcare, and furniture. In December 2019, the segment of the business focused on manufacturing parts for other companies was acquired by a partnership of two steel distribution firms and rebranded as Kooima Company, LLC. Despite this change, the company remains at its original location and employs over 125 skilled workers. Kooima Company offers a comprehensive suite of services such as flat laser cutting, tube laser cutting, robotic welding, flat bending, tube bending, machining, laser metal deposition, laser welding, finishing, and assembly. Additionally, they provide trucking, stocking, and kitting services to support their manufacturing operations. The company is committed to maintaining a strong workplace culture and offers various benefits to its employees. With decades of experience and a broad service portfolio, Kooima Company continues to be a trusted partner for precision steel fabrication in the Midwest.
