What Metcraft Industries does

Metcraft Industries, Inc. is a U.S.-based manufacturer of heavy gauge stainless steel plumbing fixtures for institutional environments, founded in 1968 and headquartered in Lee's Summit, Missouri (Kansas City area). The company produces a broad catalog of core fixtures — showers, sinks, toilets, urinals, lavatories, drinking fountains, mop sinks, scrub sinks, and service sinks — alongside specialty lines including bariatric-rated and ligature-resistant fixtures designed for correctional, behavioral health, and healthcare settings. Supporting product categories include combination fixtures, boxes, accessories, and replacement parts (including retro-fit valves).

The underlying technology centers on heavy gauge stainless steel forming for durability and longevity, with specialized engineering for high-load (bariatric) and safety-critical (ligature-resistant, anti-attachment) applications. Manufacturing is conducted at the company's Lee's Summit facility, which supports institutional-volume production runs. The company emphasizes American-made quality and on-time delivery as core operational differentiators.

Metcraft operates a B2B institutional sales model, distributing through independent regional sales representatives across North America. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Customers locate local reps via the company website or contact Metcraft directly; architects and specifiers access product specifications through integration with the MasterSpec specification system. The company targets six primary end-markets: commercial, correctional, healthcare, janitorial, schools, and parks & recreation. It is privately held with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, or external funding.
