Although stainless steel structural shapes have been available since the 1960s, widespread adoption remained limited for many years. Small production volumes, inconsistent availability, long lead times, limited supply sources, and a lack of industry knowledge often made stainless structurals difficult to specify and procure.
Founded in Switzerland in 1983, Montanstahl became an internationally recognized manufacturer and supplier of stainless steel and specialty steel profiles. Through decades of innovation, expanded manufacturing capabilities, and a growing global supply network, Montanstahl helped advance the availability and use of stainless steel structural products around the world.
Since 2005, Stainless Structurals has worked closely with Montanstahl to bring those products and capabilities to the North American market. Today, that relationship provides customers with access to one of the industry’s broadest portfolios of stainless steel structural shapes, backed by deep technical expertise, extensive inventory, and global manufacturing resources.
As our capabilities have continued to grow, so has our commitment to serving customers with innovative solutions. Today, Stainless Structurals offers laser-fused structural shapes, hot rolled and extruded profiles, custom sections, fabrication, polishing, and value-added processing. The recent addition of Extralloys, our U.S. hot extrusion mill, further strengthens our ability to provide domestically manufactured specialty profiles and expanded material options.
Our products are specified in landmark architectural projects, critical infrastructure, industrial facilities, marine applications, transportation systems, and energy projects around the world. Supported by a global network serving more than 60 countries, we remain committed to delivering exceptional quality, reliable supply, and responsive customer service wherever our customers do business.
