History
NORCO was founded by Bill & Pauline Northey in 1985, with a goal to provide pattern work and fabricated plastic tanks to the local market. NORCO quickly became the chosen mould maker for local boat builder Sunseeker. Later, in 1995, Mark Northey took control of the business. In 2013, the company was divided into two business units with a holding company.[8][9] Norco has worked within the defence sector and developed high-tolerance satellite dishes.[10]
In 2018, the company launched a dedicated Composites facility with an extended service area of 13,000 square feet.[11]
Notable acquisitions
In 2016, NORCO acquired C&B Composites. The acquisition saw all of C&B's equipment and personnel consolidated to NORCO’s Holton Health site.[12][13]
