Wisconsin firm honored in trade magazine for metal manufacturers
Robinson Inc., a De Pere, Wisconsin-based contract manufacturer and provider of complex fabricated systems, has earned a top-five position on the newly released Fab 40 list of North America’s top companies by The Fabricator magazine.
The Fabricator annually identifies 40 of the largest and most successful contract and custom fabrication companies based on self-reported revenue. Robinson’s top-five placement reflects years of strategic investment in manufacturing capacity, employee development, engineering capabilities, and long-term customer partnerships.
“The manufacturing landscape continues to evolve as customers seek partners capable of delivering not only fabrication capacity, but also engineering support, supply chain coordination, integrated assembly, and long-term production scalability,” said Jeff Kroening, director of sales for Robinson. “Robinson has invested heavily in our people, facilities, and capabilities to meet those needs. Being recognized among North America’s top five fabricators reflects the trust our customers place in us and the dedication of our employee-owners who deliver every day.”
Robinson simplifies production as a single-source contract manufacturer
The Fab 40 recognition comes during a period of significant growth for Robinson. The company announced a major expansion into Altoona, Iowa, earlier this year that will increase its manufacturing footprint to approximately 1.4 million square feet across five facilities. The investment positions the company to support growing demand from customers across power generation, critical infrastructure, industrial equipment, automation, energy, and other high-growth manufacturing sectors.
“We continue to expand our contract manufacturing capabilities to better serve our customers,” Kroening says “We serve an important role through our ability to efficiently deliver moderate- to high-repeat production volumes over a wide range of customer designs.”
