NORTH RIDGEVILLE, OhioRudolph Libbe Group (RLG) has invested in the growth of its northeast Ohio-based business by adding in-house fabrication capabilities to its North Ridgeville, Ohio location on Mills Industrial Parkway. 

"We are excited to add these capabilities for our customers," says Dave Boyer, general manager of RLG's northeast Ohio operations. "Renovating an existing building and adding staff and resources to meet our customer needs is a major step toward the long term success of RLG in NE Ohio."

The 17,000-square-feet shop is housed in a building formerly used for steel fabrication of racks for automotive supplies. Located directly across from the NE Ohio RLG offices, a complete renovation to the building was completed in July 2019. Ten employees currently work in the shop.

"Equipment that is shop-fabricated is completed safer, faster, and more cost efficiently than on-site at customer locations, particularly when projects occur in facilities with on-going operations," Boyer adds.

"Our experienced staff works directly with customers' specifications to determine the most competitive, cost-effective methods for fabricating the required components on time and to their satisfaction."
