After being awarded the 2026 Industry Award by The Fabricator, Dane Manufacturing has been ranked among The Fabricator’s Fab 40 for the 10th time.
As the premier publication focused on metal fabrication, The Fabricator serves as the leading source of insight for professionals in the industry. The annually released Fab 40 list uses revenue reports to generate a ranking of the 40 most successful metal fabricators across North America. Being named in this list is an honorable title, signifying hard work, strong customer relationships and a commitment to growth.
Dane’s success is powered through the application of President and CEO Troy Berg’s “Employees First” philosophy. As demonstrated by our various Top Workplace awards, we are constantly investing in our employees. We commit countless resources to the improvement of technical skills and personal well-being, which creates a skilled, driven workforce and a pleasant facility. Collectively, our investment in our employees leads to an empowered workforce who is passionate about serving our customers with excellence.
Additionally, Dane places a heavy emphasis on innovative processes and equipment to grow capacity and operational reliability. Strategic investments in automated technology have driven Dane through an ongoing period of expansion and success. Our TRUMPF smart factory is integrated with state-of-the-art technology to improve upon efficiency, quality, and overall excellence. Our fully automated STOPA storage system, integrated with self-operating TRUMPF equipment, enables unattended “lights out” production. Recent additions including our Starmatik robotic load/unload machine integrate flawlessly with this system. Automating these tasks creates safer, simpler and more efficient processes, which expands our capacity for production and enables us to take on larger projects.
Because of our incredible workforce and our investments in automation technology, our company has managed to grow with our customers, maintaining bonds for years on end. Without our long-term customer relationships, our 10th time being featured on the Fab 40 list would be no more than a dream. Thank you to our employees, customers, partners and everyone else who has worked so hard to bring us to this point.
