Sheet metal contractors working in the industrial sector touch a wide variety of projects ranging from custom installations to long term maintenance and repairs for industrial clients. Projects are diverse and include work on manufacturing lines, industrial infrastructure including conveyors, stairs, etc., dust collection, industrial ventilation of harmful gases and fabrication of heavy structures using heavy-gauge steel. Much of the industrial sheet metal design work comes from partnering with the customer and helping them maintain or improve their manufacturing facilities and industrial equipment over time.
