What West Point does

West Point Industries, Inc. is a 4th-generation, family-owned precision iron foundry and contract manufacturer headquartered in West Point, Georgia. Founded in 1868 to produce engineered iron castings for the textile industry and acquired by the Huguley family in 1931, the company produces short-run gray iron and ductile iron castings (10–2,000 lbs), custom metal fabrications (up to 10,000 lbs), and CNC machined finished components for heavy industrial manufacturers across agriculture, heavy machinery, infrastructure, mass transit, oil & gas, power plants, pumps & valves, and renewables.

The company is structured as a turnkey single-source supplier, with its iron foundry, fabrication shop, machine shop, in-house pattern making, and end-to-end quality assurance housed under one roof. Production capabilities include no-bake molding with 90-degree rotation, electric melt, CNC milling and turning, 4-axis vertical milling, vertical turning lathe work, horizontal boring, and structural fabrication with load testing. The business accepts batches as small as a single part, holds ISO 9001 certification (NQA), and supports its customers by warehousing patterns for quick reorders.

West Point generates revenue through project-based, custom-quoted manufacturing contracts. Pricing is determined per project based on material, weight, quantity, and complexity, with no public price list. Distribution is direct B2B through a website project inquiry form, phone (706-643-2101), and email ([email protected]), with no channel partners or resellers. The company is privately held, family-controlled, ISO 9001 certified, and operates from a single domestic site serving customers primarily in the Southeast United States.
