The Meteor Foundry Company building emerges from the non-descript surroundings of Bonhill Avenue like a brown-bricked clone of the industrial park buildings that dot this sector of Mississauga. A stylized meteorite adjacent to the property maintains the cosmic theme.

The attractive, if utilitarian 40,000 square foot physical plant gives only the slightest hint of the workmanlike approach with which its inhabitants go about the foundry business. The Meteor name suggests dazzling brilliance, intensity and energy, but this company would rather be known for simple diligence, and for turning out a product regarded for its quality and dependability. But a flashy Meteor name sticks in memory, no doubt conceived by the company's founders for sake of reputation and renown.
Meteor Foundry recently marked its 35th anniversary of supplying aluminum and zinc alloy castings, as well as a full range of services, ranging from initial design to machined castings.
