Company description

Chicago Rivet & Machine Co. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois in December 1927 as the successor to the business of Chicago Rivet & Specialty Co. The Company operates in the United States ("U.S.") through two reportable segments, defined by the nature of their products. The Fastener segment includes the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, H&L Tool Company Inc., along with the Company’s other fastener operations. This segment manufactures and sells rivets, cold‑formed fasteners and components, as well as screw‑machine products. The Assembly Equipment segment is primarily engaged in the manufacture of automatic rivet‑setting machines and related parts, components, and tools used in such machines. The principal market for the Company’s products is the North American automotive industry. Sales are solicited by employees and by independent sales representatives. The segments in which the Company operates are characterized by active and substantial competition. No single company dominates the industry. The Company's competitors include both larger and smaller manufacturers, and segments or divisions of large, diversified companies with substantial financial resources. Principal competitive factors in the market for the Company's products are price, quality and service. The Company serves a variety of customers. Revenues are primarily derived from sales to customers involved, directly or indirectly, in the manufacture of automobiles and automotive components.
