Industrial Spring Corporation of Kansas City was founding in 1967 by Glenn Tehel as a custom manufacturer of high quality mechanical springs and formed metal products. He started the company in a small building in Riverside, MO and would make sales calls in the morning and make springs in the afternoon.  The company quickly grew and built a new 12,000 sq./ft. building up the street from the original location in 1974. Continued growth in business and new equipment led to an expansion of an additional 11,000 sq./ft. of warehouse and manufacturing space in 1999.  In 2015 more production space was again needed and the focus was placed on the need for a more lean production flow through the facility. With no more land available at the Riverside location, Phil Jones the current President of Industrial Spring, relocated operations to a new 42,000 sq./ft. facility in North Kansas City, MO.
