About Onex, Inc.

Our Story

Onex History

Onex began in 1966 as a refractory distributor to the local foundries in the Erie, PA area. Then, in the 1980’s, Onex branched out to serve the heat-treating industries by becoming a “one stop shopping” source and a solutions provider for its growing extensive customer base. In 1992, our reach broadened even more as we started building furnaces under our Blue Diamond Furnaces Brand.

On January 1st, 2018, Drew and Ashleigh Walters became majority owners of the company. Ashleigh Walters will continue as President of Onex Inc., and Drew Walters as Vice President. Onex, Inc. is a woman-owned business built on our commitment to customer-focused solutions. Drew and Ashleigh plan to expand Onex’s Blue Diamond Furnace division into a full service industrial furnace OEM.

While the majority of our work is done within 4-5-hour radius of our regional offices of Erie and Pittsburgh, we have successfully completed projects across the entire United States, including Alaska, and have also subcontracted on international projects.
