Surtech Industries Company History

A need existed in 1982 for a local subcontractor who could provide polishing and buffing services for tier 1 sourcing projects in York, PA. Two brothers, Dave and John Gotwald, pooled their entrepreneurial spirit and talents to satisfy that customer need. Working from a garage in East York, the dream of entering into the manufacturing world became a reality. Their dream has evolved into a philosophy that believes in delivering a product or service to its customers that is of the highest quality. Surtech is in business to deliver quality tier 1 sourcing solutions to its customers that demonstrate ingenuity, versatility and flexibility in solving problems.

In 1989, Dave took over the ownership and moved the operation to 125 Derry Court in York, Pennsylvania. Four buildings that total 50,000 square feet of manufacturing space replaced the 1000 square foot garage. The operation has grown into eight business units providing a wide range of finishing solutions for its customers. This entrepreneurial spirit has continued to grow and a new 66,000 square foot manufacturing facility was purchased in 2002. The business now resides at 915 Borom Road in York, where it is perfectly situated to fulfill tier 1 sourcing projects for PA manufacturers.
