History

          The company was founded in 1946 by Sylvester W. Hron. From the beginning, he operated his business on the sound basic principles of personal integrity, high ethical standards and empathetic relations with his customers and employees.
         The business grew from a one man, three machine operation, to its present size. The company now employs over 70 skilled men and women working in a fully air-conditioned 34,000 square foot building, utilizing the most modern, state-of-the-art equipment available.
          Richard W. Hron, eldest son of Sylvester, joined the firm in 1961 as a machine operator and worked his way through all departments, including sales. In 1978, he became President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company. In December, 2007, his new role within the organization became that of Chairman of the Board. He oversees daily engineering tasks performed at Barton Precision Components.
         A third generation Hron, Valerie E. Hron, eldest daughter of Richard, joined the company in 1989. Valerie is a Certified Public Accountant and currently holds the office of President. As of December 28, 2007, Valerie, along with her husband, Raymond Batista, who is now the Executive Vice President, purchased the company from her father and other family members.
         Not only has the company changed its ownership, but the name has changed, as well. The company is now Barton Precision Components, LLC. Though the name has changed, the founder's principles remain woven into the fabric of the company's 62-year old operation.
