Precision Machine & Manufacturing (PMM) is proud to announce that we have been honored as a 2025 Manufacturer of the Year at the Portland Business Journal’s Manufacturing Summit & Awards. The annual event celebrates the region’s most innovative, impactful, and forward-thinking manufacturers—companies driving the Pacific Northwest economy and setting new standards for excellence in industry.
Held at The Sentinel in Portland on October 9, the Summit brought together leaders from across Oregon’s manufacturing sector to discuss how technology, innovation, and workforce development are shaping the future. This year’s honorees represented a diverse cross-section of companies that are not only succeeding in today’s competitive market but are also building a stronger, more sustainable manufacturing ecosystem for tomorrow. Don Lindsey-President/Chief Executive Officer of Precision Machine & Manufacturing accepted the award on behalf of the company.
“Being recognized among Oregon manufacturing’s elite is a tremendous honor and a reflection of the hard-charging efforts of our dedicated and loyal team, our trusted strategic partners, and our loyal customers who continue to believe in American manufacturing at its best,” said Lindsey. “As a company deeply rooted in quality, innovation, and continuous improvement, we view this award not as the finish line but as a milestone on our ongoing journey to push the boundaries of what’s possible in industrial manufacturing and within the bulk material handling industry.”
“Since our founding, Precision Machine & Manufacturing has remained focused on delivering ultra-durable rotary valve airlocks, rotary airlock feeders, and screw conveyors for the most challenging bulk material handling applications and in the most demanding industries. Manufactured to perform in the harshest industrial environments and efficiently move the most abrasive, corrosive, and difficult to handle materials, PMM has perfected wear-resistant materials for industrial manufacturing applications and we appreciate the recognition of our efforts,” Lindsey added.
“We extend our sincere thanks to the Portland Business Journal for this recognition and to the Hard-Charging PMM Team who make Precision Machine & Manufacturing what it is today—a true Oregon original committed to quality, integrity, and industry leadership,” said Lindsey.
