National Process Industries, Inc.

National Process Industries was formed in 1963 by two friends from completely different backgrounds, Lon Chaney and Roy Smith. Rather than follow his father and grandfather in the acting business, Lon had a successful career as a manufacturing engineer and manager with a large heating and air conditioning company. Roy was responsible for marketing with one of the companies that was a pioneer in the solid dry film lubricant industry. Their combination of talents proved to be quite successful in developing a company that has a reputation for supplying quality products to aerospace and other industries.
