When failure isn’t an option, you need steel plate fabricators you can trust to get it right the first time. Whether you’re sourcing a custom steel plate fabrication for intense stress loads or a part with exacting detail and geometry, Boardman brings the expertise and technology to exceed your expectations. Our heavy plate fabrication process is built for performance. We can handle complex shapes, intricate features, and high-pressure demands across a wide range of industrial and commercial uses.
As leading steel plate fabricators, we support industries like Petrochemical and marine by fabricating steel plates with precision and consistency. Using one of our four advanced plate rolls, we roll the plate into cylinders for pressure vessels, trayed towers, and more. Our heavy steel plate fabrication capabilities also include bending and shearing to complete demanding projects such as coker chutes, ducting, and a wide variety of custom applications.
We know materials vary based on your specs and process needs. That’s why our steel plate fabrication process is optimized for a range of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, clad material, nickel alloy, Monel, Inconel, and Low Alloy (Cr-Mo). From standard to specialty metals, we deliver reliable results in every heavy plate fabrication job.
When it’s time to choose a steel plate fabricator, what are your criteria? Should that partner be skilled in producing components tailored to your industry? Should they have the capability to manage heavy steel plate fabrication, handling plates up to 4” thick and weighing as much as 350 tons? Or do you need deep material expertise across standard and specialty metals?
At Boardman, we deliver all of that and more. From custom steel plate fabrication to full-scale heavy plate projects, our 140,000 ft² facility and 115 years of experience make us a trusted choice across industries that demand precision, scale, and durability.
