Hattiesburg's Manufacturing Heritage

Hattiesburg has been a center of commerce and industry in South Mississippi since the railroad era. As the Hub City, we have always connected people, products, and opportunity. C.L. Dews & Sons Foundry has been part of that story since 1941, when our family first began pouring castings on Edwards Street.

Over eight decades, we have watched Hattiesburg grow and change — but our commitment to quality manufacturing has never wavered. We have expanded from a small foundry into a comprehensive manufacturing facility with steel fabrication capabilities, a full-service machine shop, and the expertise to handle projects from prototype to production. Our AISC certification and AWS-certified welders reflect our dedication to meeting the highest industry standards.

Today, products made in our Hattiesburg facility serve industries across the nation — crusher wear parts keeping aggregate operations running in Texas, bridge components supporting infrastructure in Florida, custom castings maintaining production lines in Alabama. But our roots remain here in South Mississippi, and we continue to serve our neighbors in Hattiesburg, Laurel, Petal, and throughout the Pine Belt region.

Four generations of the Dews family have learned this trade, and that depth of experience shows in every part we produce.
