What Epix Tube does

Epix Tube Company Inc. is a privately held U.S. carbon steel tubing manufacturer headquartered in Dayton, Ohio, operating three tube mills across Ohio and Illinois with over 250,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space and 101-250 employees. The company produces square, round, rectangular, oval, and specialty carbon steel tubing, and supplements this core manufacturing with value-added services including production cutting, custom packaging, stamping, brush deburring and dedimpling, rotary and push-type swaging, and managed inventory programs. Founded in 2009 as Phoenix Tube Company, Inc. and rebranded to Epix Tube on September 11, 2015, the firm has scaled from a single 30,000 sq. ft. mill to a multi-state footprint under consistent ownership.

The company employs a sales-led, direct-contact go-to-market model — primarily phone and fax at 937.529.4858 / 937.529.4868 — with a corporate website serving as a top-of-funnel information channel. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of carbon steel tubing on a quote-based pricing model, with no publicly disclosed list pricing. Customer segmentation is horizontal, addressing industrial manufacturers across the Midwest and broader United States, with a strategic partnership with Cleary Machine Company extending capabilities into engineering, design, machining, and fabrication for automotive, food service, pharmaceutical, and U.S. Government end markets. The firm has no disclosed AI/ML capability, no institutional investors, and limited recent public reporting; a March 2026 NLRB settlement over wage-discussion policies and wrongful termination represents a material labor-relations remediation event.
