Read on for more detail about our large scale custom build services for the specific industries we are proud to cater for.

SHOPCraft: Custom Build Equipment for the Commercial Bakery, Food Production, Meat & Seafood Processing Industries

Our SHOPCraft brand is iconic and we manufacture commercial kitchen racks, cooling racks and other racks and carts that are unrivalled in quality, built to last a lifetime and will help transform the efficiency and productivity at the heart of your business.

SHOPCraft racks and carts are low maintenance (our 100% welded construction keeps food debris at bay) and highly resistant to corrosion, meaning it’s extremely unlikely you’ll have to spend money on expensive repairs and replacements because your oven racks are warped and rusting. If you work in the tough marine or seafood industries for example, these racks are the ones for you!

Many commercial bakeries produce ‘off the shelf’ and customized products, and we’re ready to provide expert design and metal fabrication services to make your ideas a reality. Contact us today to get started.

Aluminum Metal Fabrication

Aluminum metal fabrication can be used in a variety of ways to benefit your business. From laser cutting, graining and printing to anodizing and forming parts to spec, we can use this lightweight, corrosion resistant metal to deliver a custom build project tailored to your specific business needs.

Stainless Steel Metal Fabrication

Both aluminum and stainless steel are ideal materials for many custom fabrication projects, but stainless steel is typically used in cases that require a stronger material. It is three times the weight of aluminum and offers such benefits as inexpensive durability, high strength, high and low temperature resistance and high resistance to corrosion.

It also has no fabrication limitations, with laser cutting, metal stamping and forming, MIG and TIG welding, automated hardware insertion and prototype design all possible using stainless steel. Examples of our stainless steel fabrication services include crossovers, platforms, custom metal chutes and part storage bins.
