New Star Metals Now Material Sciences Corp.
Thursday, December 3, 2015
“We are on an aggressive path, going to market as one entity: Material Sciences Corporation,” says Pat Murley, chief executive officer of New Star Metals since the company’s founding, and who assumes the same role at MSC. “When we acquired MSC, we gained access to the knowledge and reputation of this publicly-traded 64-yr.-old company. Before long, we came to the conclusion that the superior brand recognition of Material Sciences Corporation could be applied effectively to the entire family of New Star Metals companies. We have more value to offer under the MSC banner, gaining access to new product applications and outstanding growth opportunities in North America and globally.”
Three MSC business units have joined the original New Star Metals entities: Canfield Coating Co., Electric Coating Technologies, Premier Resource Group and World Class Corrugating.

“The resources that will now be available to our team will allow us to better serve our cold-work tool-steel customers,” says Mike Sheehan, president and chief operating officer of Diehl Tool Steel, “and will also pave the way for us to offer hot-work tool-steel solutions for diecasting and forging applications.”
The Diel acquisition “greatly enhances our presence in North America, and will accelerate our plans to expand the capabilities we have to offer customers at Hitachi Metals,” says Tom Bell, product group head of Hitachi Metals America, LLC.
Officials note that there will be no interruption of service, and Diehl customers will continue to work with their existing sales and support teams.
