History
United Metal Products was founded by Steve and Peter Kinkel. The Kinkels come from a long family line of cooling industry professionals. Their grandfather, John Goettl, pioneered the early commercial development of evaporative cooling in the 1930s. What began as a small company of two employees in 1977 has turned into the industry leader for providing innovative and environmentally friendly cooling solutions through evaporative cooling technologies.
With over thirty years of experience and expertise United Metal Products has established itself as a valuable member of any design-build team. From start to finish, the company provides technical solutions, including complete layouts, equipment specifications, and product schedules to meet the tight deadlines required by today’s owners. “Our unique ability to deliver high quality solutions in a quick and responsive manner gives us the competitive advantage,” said President Steve Kinkel. “We make it easy for engineers and contractors to get their job done.”
