About Us
Example Of About Us PageCompany History
B&B Iron Works was incorporated in 1982 by Mauro Belgiovine in Hoboken, NJ. Mauro began the business by fabricating small miscellaneous metals projects such as railings and fire escapes for buildings in the Hoboken/Jersey City area. In 2000, the company relocated to a larger shop of roughly 25,000 square feet located in Irvington, NJ. During this time, work volume greatly increased and the average project fabricated weighed in at approximately 800 tons. This work was performed with the aid of automated machinery such as a beam line and anglemaster. In late 2014, the company expanded again to its present location at a 70,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility in Clifton, NJ.
The current facility houses 10 overhead cranes with an overall lifting capacity of 100 tons and a maximum single lift capacity of 35 tons. It also features numerous automated CNC machines including multiple beam lines, a plasma plate processor, a cambering machine, and much more. The shop’s unique layout and truck runway also allow for the simultaneous fabrication of several projects and its central location allows easy access to New York and other major cities. In addition, most of the staff have been with the company for many years and have the experience necessary to keep projects moving on a timely and cost efficient basis. All of these advantages have made B&B a premier steel fabricator in the NY/NJ tristate area, capable of fabricating projects in excess of 5,000 tons.
