Some of the equipment we build in Lancaster ends up treating wastewater for millions of people.

GSM Industrial fabricates vessels and piping for thermal hydrolysis systems, a wastewater treatment process used at major municipal plants around the world. The technology treats water more efficiently, produces renewable biogas energy, and cuts down on the waste a city has to haul away.

Most people will never see the equipment. They just see cleaner water and the lights stay on.

That is the work we show up for.

A Lancaster company building equipment that ends up in Saudi Arabia and South Korea — that's a good story.

GSM Industrial fabricated two DeDuster® systems for Pelletron Corporation, right here in Lancaster. One got pre-assembled and tested in our shop, then disassembled and shipped to a plastics manufacturer in Saudi Arabia. The other was a first-of-its-kind stainless steel build for Samsung's facility in South Korea — polished to showroom quality, installed without a single issue after delivery.

Michael King of Pelletron put it simply: it was sophisticated work, and GSM showed they were more than capable.

We're proud of this one. Full story at the link.

Proud of the team on this one.

Earlier this year we completed fabrication of a full lime slaking system for a municipal water treatment facility in South Dakota ,11 custom stainless steel vessels, 24,000 lbs of material, all built to the customer's exact drawings and delivered in 14 weeks.

The jacketed tanks on this job required 40 PSI pressure testing held for 48 hours each. Every single one passed before it left our shop in Lancaster.

This is the kind of precision fabrication work our team does every day. We just published the full project profile on our website, take a look.

When both units passed hydro testing on the first try, Michael Lauver said it best:

“That said everything about how the job was run.”

Michael has been part of the GSM team for over 25 years, a proud member of our 25-Year Club. That kind of experience is what takes a challenging job (nearly two tons of stainless, customer-supplied moving parts, brand new customer relationship) and makes it look routine.

It isn’t routine. Michael and the team just make it look that way.

Every farm animal fed in this region starts somewhere.

It starts at a feed mill. And feed mills run because someone keeps them running.

GSM Industrial and Light's Welding fabricate, maintain, and support the infrastructure at one of the Mid-Atlantic's leading livestock feed production facilities. Their mills supply feed that supports farms across Pennsylvania and the surrounding region, keeping the agricultural supply chain moving for millions of animals every single day.

We don't always see the end of the story from our shop floor. But we know it's out there. The cattle, the poultry, the hogs. The farms that depend on reliable feed supply. The families and communities that depend on those farms.

That's what we're building. Not just steel. Something bigger.

Nearly two tons of stainless. Customer hardware built right in. Hydro tested before it left the shop.

Two custom 316SS gate housings, fabricated for a coal processing customer in Ohio. The customer supplied the cylinders and gate mechanisms. Our job was to build a housing that everything fit and worked inside of. Then prove it with a hydro test.

Both passed on the first try.

This is what 78 years of doing it right looks like. See the full project profile here:

It might look like we’re just building ductwork…

But here’s what that steel actually supports.

Our team fabricates and installs air pollution control and ventilation systems inside a large U.S. battery manufacturing facility.

The batteries produced there help power:

🚗 Cars
🏗️ Forklifts and warehouse equipment
🔋 Backup power systems that keep critical operations running

Before those batteries ever leave the plant, there’s a whole layer of infrastructure working behind the scenes to keep that manufacturing process safe, compliant, and efficient.

That’s the part we build.

What starts as steel in our shop becomes part of the system that helps keep America powered.

Proud of the work. Proud of the impact.

Built for Design. Engineered for Public Use.

Public transit projects demand more than good looks—they require durability, precision, and experienced fabrication partners.

For Washington, D.C.’s U Street Subway Station, GSM Industrial fabricated an architectural stainless steel canopy designed to handle constant foot traffic, weather exposure, and long-term performance—all while maintaining a clean, modern appearance.

This project is a strong example of how custom metal fabrication supports public spaces where reliability matters most.

GSM Industrial fabricated a 46,000-lb T316 stainless AESS Level 4 canopy for the U-Street Station in Washington, DC. Precision finishing, weld testing, and architectural quality.

Safety improvements don’t always mean major overhauls — sometimes they’re targeted upgrades done the right way.

GSM Industrial recently completed stair and rooftop access safety upgrades across six buildings for a global manufacturing facility. The work focused on reducing slip risk, improving visibility, and supporting OSHA safety standards — all while coordinating closely with on-site teams.

See the before-and-after results here:
