Hawkeye Molding Company, Inc. was built on a simple but powerful foundation: deliver high-quality plastic injection molded components with the responsiveness, integrity, and work ethic that define Iowa manufacturing.

From its early beginnings in Albia, Iowa in 1979, Hawkeye Molding established itself as a trusted partner to customers across a wide range of industries—including lighting, agriculture, industrial equipment, appliances, and consumer products. Over the years, the company earned a reputation for tackling complex molding challenges and delivering consistent, reliable results.

Throughout its history, Hawkeye Molding has continually invested in advanced equipment, engineering expertise, and value-added services—from insert molding and overmolding to assembly and fulfillment. This commitment has allowed the company to evolve from a traditional molder into a full-service manufacturing partner supporting customers from concept through production.

A defining strength of Hawkeye Molding has always been its people. With decades of combined experience across operations, engineering, and quality, the team brings deep technical knowledge and a strong culture of continuous improvement. Many employees have built long-term careers with the company, contributing to a level of stability and expertise that customers can rely on.

Today, under the leadership of Owners Lana Leander & Ryan Gruhn, Hawkeye Molding continues to build on its legacy while positioning for the future. The company has consolidated operations into its Roland, Iowa facility and expanded into mold building and tooling, further strengthening its ability to provide integrated, cost-effective solutions.

As Hawkeye Molding looks ahead, its mission remains unchanged: to be a dependable, innovative manufacturing partner that helps customers succeed—delivering quality, value, and service with the same Midwestern principles that have guided the company since day one.
