About Us
E. Parrella Co., Inc. known as EPCO continues its heritage of manufacturing at its facilities in Medway, Massachusetts,
U.S.A. Adhering to its mission of providing Quality, Precision, Style, Innovation and Service to a broad customer
base serving numerous industries while proudly stating Made in the USA.
Founded in 1952 by Emilio Parrella, EPCO has become a leader in the manufacture of Bowling Balls, Industrial Balls,
etc. over these many years. After devoting much of his life in the rubber industry Emilio Parrella pursued his dream of
owning his own company and manufacturing his own products. That legacy continues through his sons, John,
Richard and Robert.
Mr. Parrella developed the first formulations and processes of repairing and refinishing Bowling Balls. Upon seeing
the
need for a better product and after several years of research and development the Paramount Brand Bowling
Ball was
introduced to small ball bowling in 1960. Paramount was the first to introduce real color and style to small ball bowling.
EPCO emphasizes the manufacture of Bowling Balls serving:
Candlepin Bowlingo
Duckpin Virtual Bowling

A natural spin-off from the manufacture of Small Ball Bowling Balls led to the introduction of EPCO Tournament Bocce
Sets. Again the emphasis is on Quality, Precision and Style. EPCO manufactures Tournament Grade Bocce Sets in
various sizes. Eight ball Tournament Sets and Four ball Professional Sets are available in a range of solid colors
including Black-Light Illuminated and Marbleized colors.
