Notable Racine employers include Case IH, S.C. Johnson & Son, Modine Manufacturing, InSinkErator, and Dremel. We don't claim these names as customers — we service the CNC shops doing precision work for them, the supply-chain machining and in-house tooling that keeps Racine's industrial base producing.
