CompCo Promises

Compco’s extraordinary culture and commitment to core values drives our industry-leading customer service.

Clarence Smith Sr. founded the company in 1952, yet his true start in business came at age 10 when, as a homeless orphan in Youngstown, Ohio, he found shelter with a local grocer. Clarence spent his days learning about business as an apprentice to the shop owner and, at night, he slept in the basement.

Within 10 years, he founded his first business: Diamond Steel Construction.

Years later, he and partner Martin Poshner created Compco Metal Products to fill a need in the metal pipe hanger market. Before long, they recognized an opportunity in tank head manufacturing. And, as their company grew, so did its competencies.

Compco is now in its 3rd  and 4th generation of Smith family leadership. The family’s steadfast priorities of people and customers above all else makes for engaged and productive team members who strive to always exceed the customer’s expectations.

Our results speak for themselves.
