Crown Alloys Company was founded in 1975 by Ms. Carola Vogel and Mr. Harry Hammond to meet the growing welding alloys needs of an expanding manufacturing industry in the Midwest. Focused on providing a wide range of alloy products, the company has grown to now offer over 1200 different alloys products sold under the Crown Alloys brand.
After Mr. Hammond passed away, Carola led Crown Alloys as a female owned business for 45 years. Her son Christian Hoffmann joined the business over 40 years ago and has served as an integral leader of the company, providing exceptional technical expertise and customer care. He continues to be sought out nationally and internationally for his vast expertise and knowledge about welding products and techniques. As the company grew, it relocated its facilities several times and is now proudly located in Madison Heights, MI – a northern suburb of the Detroit metropolitan area. In 2020, the company sadly shared that Carola passed away after a long battle with cancer.
Recognizing the need to add additional resources, in 2021, the company added Dan and Beth Asma, who have also invested in the company. With experience in sales, marketing, and operations they bring skills that will help maintain the company’s exceptional service levels while supporting continued sales growth for our distributors. They join a team with over 75 years of combined welding experience who remain committed to ensuring that welding projects in the United States are supported with the highest quality welding alloys.
Our mission remains the same as it has been since the company was founded. Provide exceptional service while offering a wide variety of welding alloy products to support the needs of the marketplace.
