Lutron Electronics, a manufacturer of lighting control, shading solutions, and lighting fixtures, has acquired Tanury Industries, a surface finishing and metal coatings company in Lincoln, Rhode Island.
Walter PeakeTanury has been one of Lutron’s leading suppliers of metal faceplates for more than 25 years, and specializes in electroplating, physical vapor deposition (PVD), and Cerakote coatings, as well as related surface-finishing processes for metals and plastics.
Founded in 1946, Tanury’s metal work can be seen on high-end motorcycle and automotive parts, private and commercial aviation, marine hardware, high-end gifts, jewelry, and more. Company operations will remain in Lincoln, Rhode Island, and Lutron will continue to invest in and grow capabilities for all existing Tanury customers.
“The strategic acquisition of Tanury enables Lutron to bring exceptional plating and coating capabilities in-house, building on Tanury’s decades of manufacturing excellence and technical expertise,” says Walter Peake, Executive Vice-President at Lutron. “These enhanced capabilities will drive greater marketplace differentiation and innovation, expand Lutron’s portfolio of premium metal finishes, and support the timely delivery of superior metal-finished products to customers worldwide.”
Thomas TanuryAs two family-owned businesses, Lutron and Tanury share core values that make this acquisition a strong strategic and cultural fit. Tanury’s customer-focused approach, rigorous quality control processes, and long-standing investment in research and development make it a natural addition to the Lutron brand.
“The synergies between our two companies played a significant role in our decision to work with Lutron,” says Thomas A. Tanury, Tanury Chairman and son of Tanury founder Fredrick M. Tanury. “Lutron’s principles-based culture, future expansion plans, and genuine care for employees will allow for continued growth and success.”
