About Us

Our Story

Grimm Brothers began with two brothers primarily employed in farming, leaving enough time for them to do outside work in the farm shop. As one of their first projects, Kent and Curt Grimm fabricated particle board electronic cabinets which were covered with Formica. The demand for their cabinets grew to the point at which the brothers could hardly keep up. The idea of a plastic cabinet was discussed which prompted the brothers to attend the National Plastic Expo held in Chicago in May of 1985.

As a result of the show, they made a recommendation to their cabinet buyer to replace the current cabinet with a plastic one. The client approved, and a pressure forming company out of Chicago was selected to mold the cabinets. With the experience of having an outside source make the cabinet, Grimm Brothers discovered the opportunity to become involved in pressure forming.

The first machine was a vacuum-former, which the brothers retrofitted into a pressure-former. Through Kent and Curt's excellent engineering skills, the business has continued to grow. We are currently meeting a wide variety of needs for our customers.

We are now operating in a 85,000 square foot building as Grimm Brothers Plastics Corporation in Wapello, Iowa.

Currently Curt Grimm is President, Kent Grimm is Vice President and Larry Moser is Sales & Marketing Manager. 

We are serving the needs of the following industries: medical, fitness, industrial, recreation, appliance, food and beverage, and business machines.
