History
Imperial Machine Products Company
IMPCO, an acronym from its original name, was founded in 1958 by Herbert V. Hills and Richard Baverstock in a small Quonset hut in South Gate, California. The company was born out of the need for faster and more energy efficient cars and speed boats in racing. The first product developed and sold was the CA300A carburetor, known as the IMPERIAL, which is still sold today.
1960s - 1990s
The company moved to Cerritos in 1967 and became a wholly owned subsidiary of AJ Industries (Alaska Juneau Mining Company). In 1989, IMPCO became a publicly traded company. Traded as IMCO, it allowed the reinvestment of profits to expand the business. This expansion included the purchase of BEAM Products Company in 1986, Garretson Equipment Company in 1997, and J & S Products and Algas Carburetion in 1998, enabling IMPCO to broaden its engine range capabilities. Along the way, IMPCO also purchased several of its distributors, including Technisch Bureau Media in The Netherlands, Ateco PTY in Australia, and an additional facility in Japan, becoming global affiliate locations.
Proven Expertise: With a history dating back to 1958, IMPCO has accumulated decades of experience in the design and manufacturing of gas equipment and safety equipment. Our long-standing presence in the industry attests to our expertise and reliability.
2000s
In 2006, IMPCO moved to a new state-of-the-art facility in Santa Ana, California, expanding its engineering and manufacturing capabilities. Three years later, IMPCO acquired GFI Controls Systems for its fuel-injected industrial fuel systems and its line of CNG and Hydrogen high pressure components.
2010s
In May of 2017, EControls acquired IMPCO’s industrial division which included the Santa Ana facility, as well as entities and facilities in The Netherlands, France, Germany, Japan, and South Korea combining to become the pre-eminent systems provider in the industrial and heavy duty markets. IMPCO’s manufacturing was moved to EControls headquarters in San Antonio, Texas.
Innovation and Research: The company has a history of investing in research and development to stay at the forefront of technology.
