REXBURG – As Leo Castagno reflects on what sets his business apart from competitors, he pauses and holds back tears as he points to his employees.
“We’re different because we have Preston, Aubrey and we have Jeff and all the collective creativity. That’s what separates us from everywhere else,” Castagno says.
The 67-year-old Hibbard man and his wife, Becky, are the owners of Premier Powder Coating & Custom Fabrication at 115 North 2nd West in Rexburg. The business, which designs, manufactures and powder coats (a dry paint that cures metal after it’s cut and gives it a smooth texture) just about any metallic product, will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2025.
The company has clients all over the country, one of which is Myron Mixon, a 5-time world champion barbecuer. Mixon owns a barbecue cooking school in Georgia and Castagno and his team are making an embroidered charcoal lighter with his logo and image on the front.
Another recent product creation is a raptor cover, which is designed to keep birds out of toilet vaults.
Each item is made using the company’s new fiber optic laser cutter. See how it works in the video above.
