The Story of Staub

Staub Machine Company was founded in 1975 in the garage of Tony Staub’s childhood home. But Tony had bigger dreams than a garage (hey, we hear Steve Jobs did too), and over the next 43 years he built his company into an industry leader in the precision machining and production industry. Tony still plays a key role at Staub Precision Machine, and his goal of embracing technology and innovation through forward thinking and good old-fashioned corporate honesty has been realized and continued by company leaders.

Tony broke the Golden Rule of machining in 1992: he walked away from his machine and let it run unattended.

Tony’s business started with the purchase of an engine lathe and without a single customer. It made significant progress over the next 43 years – growing and expanding at a  rapid pace. In 1995, Staub moved into an old Super Duper grocery store location at 206 Lake St. in Hamburg. In 2010, Tony purchased two additional buildings on Grimsby drive, a mile away from the main location. With this added space and the opportunities it allowed, Staub Machine was able to take innovation and production to a brand new level.

On May 13th Tony and Staub accepted the Buffalo Business First Manufacturing Award for Innovation.

With all that progress, you’d think Tony is ready to sit back and relax for a few years. But settling for a job well done isn’t the foundation on which Staub is built. In order to keep the company intact, innovating, and growing, Tony decided to sell the assets of Staub Machine Company to Staub Precision Machine, Inc. With new ownership and strengthened resources, Staub Precision Machine is poised to take production precision machining to the next level.
