Howard Steel: A Tradition of Excellence in Steel Fabrication Since 1982

Founded in 1982 by James Howard in Charlotte, North Carolina, Howard Steel began as a family-owned business committed to delivering high-quality steel products and unmatched service to customers throughout the region. From our roots in a 21,000-square-foot warehouse, we have evolved into a leader in steel fabrication, serving North Carolina and South Carolina with a focus on craftsmanship, reliability, and customer satisfaction.

In 2024, Howard Steel welcomed a new chapter under the ownership of Metal Fabrication North America, Inc. dba Howard Steel Inc., led by Ken Moore. With over 30 years of experience in the steel industry, Ken continues our legacy of prioritizing client needs, ensuring that each project is completed with precision and care. Though the name behind the ownership has changed, our commitment to delivering the quality and service you trust remains stronger than ever.

Our Commitment to the Carolinas

For more than four decades, Howard Steel has been a trusted partner to the construction, manufacturing, and industrial sectors in the Carolinas. We know that timelines are critical, which is why we strive to provide our customers with the materials they need when they need them. If we don’t have it in stock, we can have it ready for you by the next day. Our mission is simple: to support your success by delivering the best products, on time, every time.
