Fabricating the Future
There’s a lot more to structural steel fabrication than designing, detailing, cutting, drilling, and welding. The true test of any fabricator is in its ability to deliver projects on time, within budget, and to spec—over and over again. For 70 years, North Alabama Fabricating Company (NAFCO) has been doing just that. In the beginning, we specialized in structural detailing, but have since proved our mettle in engineering, fabrication and erection.

Industrial Steel Fabrication
NAFCO is an industry leader in the design and fabrication of tubular gallery conveyors and heavy platework, delivering engineered solutions for some of the most demanding industrial environments. Our industrial steel capabilities also include structural steel, chutes, bins, hoppers, silos, and a wide range of custom components built for durability, safety, and long service life. With in-house detailing, advanced modelling, and large-capacity fabrication resources, we can take on complex assemblies and tight-tolerance work that few fabricators can support. From single components to complete material-handling systems, NAFCO provides reliable, engineered steel solutions for customers across the United States and around the world.
Structural Detailing
NAFCO’s in-house detailing operation began in 1953 and we’re still at it today. We use the latest modelling technology with both Tekla and SDS/2, along with decades of detailing experience to understand your project and provide best-in-class detailing services.
