STEELFAB, the steel service center and steel fabricator with the largest volume capacity in Alaska, has been in business in the same location adjacent to Ship Creek in Anchorage since 1948. Richard and Janet Faulkner bought the business over 20 years ago and initiated an ambitious and intensive capital improvement campaign to thoroughly modernize and expand the original six-acre site
Today STEELFAB encompasses 10 acres. STEELFAB’s covered work area has increased six-fold from 1988 to over 80,000 square feet. Indoor fabrication space, including a specialty paint and coating building, contains six 10-ton overhead cranes, five 5-ton overhead cranes and modern equipment like a computer-guided plasma cutter, shot blaster, beam camber machine, a beam fabrication machine and press brakes.
A completely revamped storage and process system that includes improved plate handling and beam storage capacities, plus indoor and outside industrial lighting, add to the modernized, safety-enhanced picture at STEELFAB
The 60-person operation is headed by President Richard Faulkner and Vice President Janet Faulkner.

A Message from STEELFAB President Richard Faulkner
Alaskans are a proud group of highly individual people. It is our nature. A few themes do unite us. Perhaps one of the common ones is recognizing when we can do a job without help from Outside of Alaska. We are proud of the quality of work and fabricated steel products we produce at STEELFAB. As the largest locally owned steel service center and fabricator in Alaska, with the largest volume capacity, we provide large and small products to the oil, construction, and other industries of our great state.
Our goal is to make sure our customers never have to leave Alaska to get their steel needs met. We are confident we meet or exceed the capabilities of all other steel centers in Alaska and on the West Coast of America. And we mean to stay that way.
