    LODGE MANUFACTURING

    • 100 PLUS YEARS AND STILL COOKING!

      Nestled alongside the Cumberland Plateau of the Appalachian Mountains is the town of South Pittsburg, Tennessee (population 3,300). It was here that Joseph Lodge and his wife settled and, in 1896 opened his first foundry. Originally named The Blacklock Foundry after Joseph Lodge's friend and minister, the company gained success until May 1910 when it burned down. Just three months later and a few blocks south, the company was reborn as Lodge Manufacturing Company.

      Joseph Lodge created a legacy of quality that has thrived through two World Wars and the Great Depression and is still carried on by his family today. Both our CEO and President are Joseph Lodge's great-grandsons who continue to evolve our product line and improve manufacturing methods. While many worthy competitors have fallen by the wayside, Lodge's dedication to quality, technology and employees have helped it not only survive but flourish.

      Even during the hard times of the 1930s, the Lodge family found ways to keep employees above water. Novelty items such as cast iron garden gnomes and animals were produced and sold to keep the furnaces burning and the paychecks issued.

    • THEN AND NOW!

      As the economy bounced back, Lodge responded to growing demand, and in 1950 converted its foundry from a hand-pour operation to an automated molding process in order to keep up with demand. This led to safer and more efficient manufacturing that at the time was very rare. Continuing a dedication to technology and conservation, Lodge once again updated it foundry in 1992. The replacement of coal-fired cupola furnaces with an electro-magnetic induction melting system earned a Tennessee Governor's Award for Excellence in Hazardous Waste Reduction.

      Well into our second century in business, Lodge continued to innovate. In 2002, the legendary Lodge Logic line of pre-seasoned cookware was introduced, eliminating the hassle of its unseasoned counterparts. It was an industry first that has since become an industry standard.




    • With consumer demand now exceeding foundry capacity, Lodge has unveiled plans for a considerable expansion of the South Pittsburg plant. These will include new melting systems, sand systems, an additional molding line, and expanded seasoning lines. We are excited to be able to grow to new heights with our feet still firmly planted at home.

    • Foundry-seasoned and ready to use!

      Lodge Logic is electrostatically coated with a proprietary vegetable oil, and is cured at high temperatures to allow the oil to penetrate the surface of the cast iron. This Foundry-seasoning allows for a natural, easy-release surface that actually improves with each use. Cast iron is the original non-stick surface.
