What Sharon Manufacturing does

Sharon Manufacturing Inc is a privately held industrial fabrication company established in 1970 and headquartered in Wadsworth, Ohio, that designs, manufactures, and assembles heavy-duty equipment for material handling operations. The company's core product line is the Infinity series of conveyors, including the 8048 stacking conveyor, 8036 high-capacity conveyor (up to 500 tons per hour), TUTFT80 truck unloader (over 900 cubic yards per hour), and BF27K portable stockpile conveyor (27,000 cubic yard capacity), all powered by diesel-hydraulic systems from CAT, Yanmar, Kubota, or Deutz. Supporting offerings include the Pioneer VR 5260 impact crusher, Diamond DZH 4000 horizontal grinder, a custom fabrication service for close-tolerance and special-environment projects (historically including train cars, barges, and steel trusses), and a used equipment channel.

The business serves two primary verticals: large-scale mulch yards requiring high-volume material processing equipment and stone quarries needing aggregate crushing, grinding, and conveying systems. Technology differentiation rests on granted patents in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada covering the Infinity BF27K design, combined with deep domain specialization developed over more than 50 years. Distribution is exclusively direct-to-customer B2B via the company website and phone-based inquiry, with no dealer network, channel partners, or international sales infrastructure disclosed. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales and project-based custom fabrication contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated per inquiry. Operating geography is concentrated in the Midwest USA, with the company classified as a small private firm with 11-50 employees.
