Steel or metal fabrication is a broad specialization. Technically, it is not a trade which regular welding companies or contractors can fulfill. It involves not just one or two but multiple operations that requires precision and expertise. It applies processes with high complexity to create value-added products essential to mining, energy, automotive, construction, medical, transportation, food, and all other business industries that exists.


Shortlisting and finally choosing the best candidate for a steel fabrication job is crucial as far as successful project completion is concerned. This is because successful completion does not only mean finishing a project on time, it follows accomplishing a project safely within schedule, within budget, and compliant to specified quality and standards.


Luckily, ESC got you covered and here’s why you should not just consider but rely on us.

FABRICATION CAPABILITIES


With a global capability of producing over 300,000 metric tons per year of steel products and structures at various locations and sites around the world, ESC provides one-stop solutions for projects of all scales and requirements. We employ not just state-of-the-art equipment and machineries but the most skilled and qualified labor assets that gets them into work. Below is a showcase of some of the capabilities of ESC's prequalified mills:


In terms of structure types:



One of the criteria that qualifies a metal fabricator is its capability to design and formulate engineering solutions for different project specifics. A metal fabricator should be able to work with drawings, translate drawings and specifications to shop drawings, and design a project from scratch if necessary including undertaking field investigation works.

PRICING


Prices differs from fabricator to fabricator, obtaining quotations from many providers and comparing the provisions in details is always an advantage in understanding the real extent of the project. The best metal fabricator for a specific job won’t necessarily have the lowest price or the biggest name in the business, there are parameters to look at instead when comes to identifying a company that can provide competitive proposals or prices:


  • Proposal adapts to available budget and comes up with a sound, practical solution without sacrificing any of the project essentials.

  • The fabricator has wide influence and material purchasing power

  • Knows standard and realistic prices within the industry

  • Can devise and explain the most cost-effective approach for all kinds of projects

  • Has complete control of shipping and logistic operations including costs


ESC’s reputation is built on excellence and commitment in providing high-quality, efficient, and cost-effective solutions. We are capable of providing competitive prices by adhering to engineering innovations and advance technologies that enhances safety and product quality, reduces unnecessary operational costs, and creates added value to our products and services.


TO WRAP IT UP


The purpose of planning and scheduling is to eliminate or reduce possible risks that may occur in the implementation stage. In any case, selecting a company which has the experience with your type of project is a smart decision

This is simply because a well-experienced company is always a step ahead among others in identifying, avoiding, or dealing with implementation surprises and turnarounds which can be really painful and costly.
