William P. Carpenter works as a skilled tool and die maker at A.H. Tallman Brass & Metal Co. in Hamilton.
Recognizing the potential of the emerging die casting process, he is sent to Toledo, Ohio to train directly underneath Herman H. Doehler, a German immigrant who patented his own pressure casting method in 1906 and founded Doehler Die Casting.
Returning from Toledo, William establishes and manages a die casting department at A.H. Tallman Brass & Metal Co. in Hamilton. The company is the first known supplier of die cast parts to the Canadian market, including automotive manufacturers,helping introduce the technology to Canadian industry.
Following the closure of the Tallman operation during the Great Depression, William partners with Mr. Barber to purchase equipment at auction and establish Barber Die Casting (Later AMCAN Castings). As General Manager, he helps build the business through the Depression and wartime years while continuing to develop his expertise in die casting.
Following the Second World War, William establishes Carpenter Die Casting.
Starting out of his basement, the company begins producing an innovative washing machine pump designed, built, and patented by William P. Carpenter. The product is adopted by General Electric and supports Canada’s growing appliance industry.

Norman Carpenter joins the family business in 1963 after older brother Len Carpenter leaves to establish Burlington Die Casting (Later Burlington Technologies).
