Our History

Dixline has a corporate office and two manufacturing facilities in Galva, Illinois. In addition, we have a lab and waste treatment facility on-site, and a warehouse operation.

Dixline Corporation is privately owned by the Thomson family. Currently, the fourth and fifth generations of the family are actively involved in the day to day operations.

Dixline began in the early 1920’s in the casket hardware industry. Over the years, names have changed from Ralph C. Dixon Company, to Dixline Company, to Dixline Casket Hardware Company, and finally to Dixline Corporation in 1967. Dixline endured fires in 1947 and 1968 but continued on to expand its services beyond the casket hardware industry to what it offers today.

Dixline completed projects for Daisy Outdoor Products, General Motors, Power Place Products, and Red Jacket Pump over the years. Most recently, Schlage Lock Company, Truth Hardware and Porter Athletic, to name a few. We at Dixline believe in our growth, work, and customer service, and are always looking toward the future.

Dixline Corporation is a metal fabrication and finishing company selling to a worldwide market. Dixline’s central business has always been the production and finishing of casket hardware. Over the years, we have greatly expanded our capabilities.

We offer services to many industries. For example, we have completed projects for the automotive, banking, aviation, and toy industries to name a few.
