Thompson Dayton Steel Service, Inc. operates as part of The Thompson Companies, a network serving the flat rolled steel market. The business traces its origins to 1922, when Thompson Wire Company was founded in Boston to produce cold rolled steel wire, with an early expansion through a Worcester wire drawing plant. A 1980 expansion of a Paulding, Ohio hardening and tempering facility, enlarged in 1988 to double its capacity, underscored the group's emphasis on processing capabilities.
Thompson Steel broadened its stainless steel reach in 1986 by acquiring Arrow Metals Inc., which formed Arrow Thompson Metals Inc. The Thompson group later consolidated operations with Dayton Steel Services in Ohio and a Rome, Georgia site, and a Greenville, South Carolina plant, under its umbrella; in 2002 a joint venture with Optimal Steel Services expanded its national footprint. Today The Thompson Companies operate six facilities across the United States with corporate offices in Canton, Massachusetts, while Thompson Dayton Steel Service, Inc. continues from the Rome, Georgia location.
