Becoming experts in the industries we serve

Hirschfeld is active in a number of critical business sectors, including producing

components for bridges, structural applications, industrial and nuclear facilities,

and international markets.

Each of these sectors brings its own specific demands for quality, safety and reliability.

In all of these cases, not only businesses, but lives depend on our Company’s ability to

deliver excellence. From our beginnings as a company dedicated to repairing oil field

equipment and simple steel structures to today, we’ve grown because we listened to our

customers, responded quickly to their demands, and provided fast and responsive products

and services. We’ve continually improved and updated our processes and equipment,

expanded our product offerings to meet demands, and added cross-functional systems

that have enabled us to diversify while maintaining our standards of quality.

Bridges are both the literal and figurative links that allow people, goods and

communities to come together. Building bridges requires adhering to the

highest standards of safety and quality, because without them, our lives

come to a standstill. Yet for all their sturdy practicality, bridges can be

beautiful, too. Fabricating components that are strong yet light, durable yet

appealing, presents a special set of challenges. One that the designers,

engineers and craftsmen of Hirschfeld are able to meet time and time again.

Commercial and Entertainment, Industrial, Power, Oil and Gas. For all countries in which

Hirschfeld contracts and for all market sectors, customers can expect excellence in

both service and product.

HIRSCHFELD’S INTENT IS TO INCREASE OUR GLOBAL PRESENCE IN

THESE MARKET SECTORS:

• POWER

• OIL AND GAS

• MINING AND METALS

Going the extra mileHirschfeld’s Transportation division provides captive transportation services, representing a

significant benefit for our customers. Due to the difficulties inherent in transporting large

steel structures, third-party transportation providers struggle to deliver fabricated components

without damage or delay. Because of the size and weight of Hirschfeld’s fabricated steel

products, the transportation division has substantial expertise in hauling heavy, oversized loads.

This highly specialized fleet of trucks, combined with our national network of fabrication plants

and experience in delivering components to the international market, means you can rely on

us to deliver in a timely manner, time and time again.

Bringing precisionand details togetherConverting engineering drawings into shop drawings for fabrication operations or third-party

construction requires exceptional precision and painstaking attention to detail. Consteel

Technical Services, acquired by Hirschfeld in 1998, performs these services for our clients in

the U.K. and continental Europe. Since it was founded in 1976, the firm has developed a

proven track record of success detailing designs for stadiums, commercial buildings, high-rise

office buildings, hotels, and convention centers, as well as industrial and manufacturing plants.

To ensure the highest levels of precision, Consteel’s detailing team is made up of fully

qualified draftsmen with a wealth of experience in structural design, detailing and steelwork

fabrication. Using the latest software programs, including TEKLA Structures, AutoCAD and

our own in-house proprietary software, they create precision drawings that meet or exceed

national and international industry standards. The result? Steel components that are picture-

perfect for every application.

Building strong relationships

Hirschfeld works to build strong, ongoing relationships with all of our stakeholders,

including our customers, employees and their families, shareholders, alliance partners,

vendors and the communities in which we work and live.

Our employees use the most advanced technology and fabrication techniques to

manufacture products that meet or exceed customer expectations and deliver these

products in a timely manner. Moving ahead, we hope to strengthen and build on our existing

relationships, and to enter into new business ventures with companies around the world.

We are excited by emerging possibilities, and eager to prove ourselves with new challenges.

We will continue to work side-by-side with our clients from conception to fabrication

and installation in order to ensure the success of every project. At Hirschfeld, we believe

our relationships should be as enduring as the steel components we fabricate.
