History

Founded in 1973, the mission of A&B Process Systems to serve as their customers' primary process partner and the core values of integrity, dedication, and satisfaction provided the foundation on which A&B has built a successful business and a stainless reputation.

 

Surrounded by some of America’s most beautiful dairy land in Stratford, Wisconsin, A&B Process Systems initially focused on the installation of stainless steel process systems. Mechanical contracting services were primarily directed to the fluid milk and cheese processing industries.

 

In 1982, the success story continued as A&B realized their customers needed more from them; they needed solutions, not just systems. But the key component to any solution is people of vision, those with the ability to assess a system and pinpoint problems. A&B broadened its services to include process system engineering, process automation and controls, custom design and fabrication and field installation throughout the U.S. And during this time, A&B became known as the leading single-source provider of custom-designed stainless steel process systems.

 

With hundreds of satisfied customers, A&B opened its second manufacturing facility in 1991 - a facility dedicated to the custom design and fabrication of stainless steel process systems and equipment.

 

By 1998, a manufacturing facility specifically designed for large-scale fabrication was in place. A&B had become a true leader in need-specific small-and large-scale process system design, fabrication and installation for manufacturers throughout North America. With these new facilities, A&B could take care of customers’ needs from A to Z.

 

In 2006, A&B expanded the capacity of its large scale manufacturing facility and added a state-of-the art Factory Acceptance Testing Center. The center was designed with customer input and is a testament to their commitment in providing turn-key solutions for the manufacturing industry.

 

Most recently, A&B began construction on a 53,000 square foot manufacturing facility unique in the industry because it was designed for and by our customers. The facility will enhance A&B’s current capabilities by adding more manufacturing capacity with higher bays, more overhead crane capacity, and improved lead times through the integration of the latest technologies into our manufacturing practices.

 

Today, A&B is an established leader servicing Fortune 500 Companies in the pharmaceutical/personal care, food/beverage, dairy and industrial/renewable energy industries. With over 250,000 square feet of manufacturing capacity and a state-of-the-art testing center, A&B Process Systems is supported by an in-house staff of design engineers, welders, fitters, machinists, QA/QC professionals and project management personnel.

 

Insight and vision are what’s behind this great American success story. Our goals are to achieve optimum results for our customers, to attract the brightest associates, and to produce solutions with innovation, invention and ingenuity. With us, success can only be defined as A&B and you.
