Founder

DON COLEMAN, Founder, has been in the magnetics industry for over 50 years. Starting Magnaslice in 1977, his first purchase order came from a customer who manufactured car flashlights with magnetic holders.  His customer wanted to replace his high priced alnico magnet with fabricated ferrite magnet, which would be more functional and save money.   The first order was for 250,000 magnets to be used in these flashlights.  Don served his country on the USS Midway.  Afterwards, he worked for US Steel, Indiana General and Arnold Engineering, where he developed his passion for magnetics, while teaching himself practical application design and learning from engineers about their products. In 1982, he formed International Magnaproducts and it has become one of the top magnetic material distributors in the USA today.
