HISTORY
The Requarth mill traces its origins to a small turning shop at Fourth and Wayne. We opened our doors in 1860, founded by Henry W. Meyer and Frederick August Requarth, the great-great-grandfather of current president Alan F. Pippenger and vice president John Requarth. You’ll find us today at the same Monument and Sears Street location in Dayton, where we’ve been since 1895.
Over the years, we’ve become an institution in the Dayton community, and we’ve built a national reputation for fine custom millwork. We even helped out some favorite sons of the area, Orville and Wilbur Wright, when they purchased spruce from us to construct their early flyers.
While we’re proud of our history, we’ve also got on eye on the future and the coming generations.
