It’s Local Manufacturing Week presented by Briwood Farm Market.
Today we are profiling Stubbes Precast.
myFM stopped by the office and spoke with plant manager Mark Van Wyk and Andy Hiebert, who works on the floor as a painter.
Stubbes, for those unaware, prepares precast concrete components.
This could be anything from floor panels to wall panels, putting in reinforced connections, which are then shipped offsite to be used in homes and buildings.
How the business side of things works is an owner or a contractor comes in looking to build something, the sales team pitches an audio, a project manager coordinates things, it goes for approval and everything is approved and then it’s over to the plant to get ready.
Once that work is completed, the components might go into home construction or into the walls at massive Amazon facilities.
Stubbes started off as a smaller business, mostly in the agricultural world, and kept expanding into the large-scale facility it is today, thanks to taking advantage of the latest technology.
The company likes to give back to the community and it’s employees as well, trying to make it a fun place to work with a great work culture.
