Custom Wire Products (CWP) has acquired Little Falls Alloys (LFA), a wire manufacturer based in Paterson, New Jersey, that specializes in nonferrous copper-based alloys.

A press release said that LFA’s 30,000-sq-ft facility in Paterson will continue to operate under its established name. The company provides custom redraw and electroplating of wire. “The strategic acquisition enhances CWP’s production capacity, broadens its collective product offerings, and reinforces its commitment to delivering superior service to customers.”

Per the LFA website, the company stocks raw material to be drawn and its plating department can process most precious metals as well as copper and nickel. The company pioneered the production of beryllium wire in the 1940s. Many customers use its wire to make springs of all sizes and designs. Other sectors it serves include the automotive, aviation, telecom and medical device industries. CWP makes custom wire and cable.

“Over the past 80 years, Little Falls Alloys built a strong reputation for excellence and reliability,” said CWP President Jeff Lawrence. “We are excited to bring that legacy into the CWP family and leverage our strengths to provide even greater value to our customers. With Paterson as our core manufacturing hub, we are primed to scale faster, improve production efficiencies, and raise the bar on what we deliver to our customers.”

Lawrence said that the multi-million-dollar acquisition will be complemented by a significant investment aimed at driving long-term growth and impacting improvements across the business
