Precise Tooling has been designing, manufacturing, and repairing molds and providing CNC machining services since 1979. The company started modestly with a handful of employees who wanted to apply their mold industry knowledge to the process of making better tooling. Slowly, but consistently the company grew in stature and reputation by building high quality tooling.
Don Dumoulin purchased the Company from its founders in 2013. After honing his leadership skills at Proctor & Gamble and in the medical device industry, Don invested significant capital at Precise Tooling by adding an ERP system, state-of-the-art machining centers, and software applications to ensure the Company could meet evolving customer expectations.
