Metal Fab, LLC
Building Products Made To Last
By Tami S. Zimmerman
If one had to sum up Metal Fab, LLC in one word, it would be “diversity.” “We do everything,” said general manager Rick Simon, referring to all areas in welding, machining, bending, roll- ing, and fabrication, not to mention sundry projects for clients in industries from the food industry to municipali- ties to general contractors and yes, even to individual art- ists.
“We really offer a wide variety of services, which is
what makes it so interesting,” company president Janet Beal affirmed. Established in 2000, Metal Fab is a wholly owned sub-
sidiary of Tarco Steel, Inc., located in Binghamton, NY. The parent company, a steel service center, stores steel, aluminum and stainless steel in its 35,000-square-foot
warehouse, where it is then processed to customer speci- fications. Metal Fab was created to complement Tarco Steel by creating a product customers could use for whatever pur- pose, whenever. According to Beal, the majority of proj- ects crossover between the two entities, which is exactly what she had hoped for at Metal Fab’s inception. Beal said she wanted to offer Tarco Steel customers additional services. Her 10-year-old enterprise has made that hap- pen, creating what she now calls a “one-stop shop.” “In most cases, Tarco Steel provides the material; Metal
Fab provides the labor,” she said. “If customers have a need for steel, we can not only provide the steel but have it ready for them to use or install.” While Tarco Steel can cut the parts for clients, Metal
Hole drilling on the 8’ radial arm drill has the capacity to drill up to a 3” diameter. Lathe work, milling and threading are also available in the company’s machining center.
