At the bottom of their webpage: 

Made In The U.S.A.   Effective: October 2016 - Supersedes All Previous Versions

No phone number, maybe they are deer hunting.

No clue whether they are still in business or not, but zombie web sites can stay up for years, even if the business goes under. Unless the hosting service deliberately shuts it down or the DNS records are purged, a web site will continue to respond to queries.

It would be a pity to lose them, as they fill a niche few others bother with.  Some of these very small outfits only produce product a couple of times a year accounting for the long lists that say "out of stock" on the Walthers website.  Even as established a firm as Micro Engineering has been like that from time to time.
