50th Anniversary
On August 3, 1959, Walter and June Bunting founded Bunting® Magnetics Co. in Chicago, Illinois. The original location, on Chicago’s north side, was a 500 square foot office on Fullerton Avenue. The company started as a stocking distributor for cast Alnico magnets and small ceramic magnet assemblies designed for industrial use.
Now, 50 years later, Bunting® has established itself as an industry-leading manufacturer in several product lines. From those humble beginnings, the company, headquartered in Newton, KS, has expanded to seven major locations including our Flexible Die Division in Newton, KS, our Magnet Materials Division in Elk Grove Village, Illinois; our Magnet Applications Limited (MAL) manufacturing operation in Berkhamsted, England, Magnet Application, Inc facility in Dubois, Pennsylvania, our purchasing office for Bunting China located in Ningbo, China and our official licensee in Boronia Victoria, Australia, Alpha Magnetics Pty Ltd.
As we celebrate this important milestone, we would like to thank our customers, supply partners and, most importantly, all of current and past employees. Our first 50 years has been a profile in growth and innovation. Now and in the future, we are striving to keep improving and build upon the legacy….. Bunting®….always the best….we’ll prove it!
