About The Company
Are you in need of curved metal? At Albina Co., Inc. we have mastered the skills of steel and metal bending, rolling and fabrication. We bend and roll structural steel members, various sizes of round pipe and HSS material, and plate. We work with carbon, stainless, aluminum and most exotic metals. We have serviced the steel industry since 1939 and we provide quality curved metal products and services that stand out from the competition. Making the most of the latest technologies in the field, we can produce virtually any metal component that needs to bend or curve. Albina has an impeccable reputation in the industry for producing difficult and unusual parts.
Rolled steel is more aesthetically appealing and attractive than "built-up" or "welded" sections. Rolled steel is not a “common” product. Projects that contain rolled steel are eye-catching, artistic and award-winning! The bending process does not affect the strength or structural integrity of the steel.
Albina produces curved roof trusses for airports, stadiums, high rises, museums, hotels, shopping centers, and more.
Albina produces consistent, accurate and repeatable rolled metal parts and components for various OEM and industrial business sectors.
Albina specializes in architectural exposure quality spiraling of tube steel, channel, plate and pipe to amazingly tight radii and steep pitches. We work on both commercial and residential applications.
In addition to staircases and stringers, we produce a number of other ornamental products such as handrails, decorative gates and fences, as well as architecturally unique and appealing signage and entry-ways for commercial, residential, recreational and transportation applications.
