In 1972, he sold it to Marty DeLaurenti, who added production capabilities and re-named it to Buyken Stamping & Machine Works, Inc. Several years later, he renamed the company to Buyken Industries, Inc.
In January of 1996, Mark DeLaurenti purchased the company and re-branded it to Buyken Metal Products, Inc. in December of 2016, Craig Hanela purchased the company to continue the long history of servicing our customers.
