Indiana Industrial Services

What Indiana Industrial Services does

Indiana Industrial Services (IIS) is a privately held industrial services company founded in Indiana that specializes in turnkey material handling equipment installation for warehouse, distribution, and manufacturing facilities. Operating from three regional offices in Whitestown IN, Groveport (Columbus) OH, and Haltom City (Dallas/Fort Worth) TX, the company delivers four interconnected service lines: mechanical systems installation (racking, shelving, conveyor, mezzanines, pick modules, custom fabrication), electrical systems (PLC programming across Allen-Bradley, Omron, Siemens, DirectLogic, and Koyo platforms, HMI development, and UL508(a)-certified industrial control cabinet design and fabrication), new and used material handling equipment sales (with an 80,000 sq ft warehouse in the Indianapolis area), and scheduled preventative maintenance programs.

The business model is a hybrid of professional services (project-based installation work priced on custom quotes), hardware distribution (new and used material sales conducted exclusively through a B2B dealer channel to avoid competing with those dealers' end customers), and recurring managed services (quarterly preventative maintenance contracts). Go-to-market is sales-led and field-based, with each regional office maintaining designated contacts across mechanical, electrical, controls, and materials divisions. Customer segments span warehouse and distribution center operators (primary), material handling equipment dealers/distributors (primary), and industrial manufacturing operations. The company claims to be one of the largest material handling installation companies in the United States and the largest in Indiana, supported by 30+ years of operating history and a record of never having missed a project deadline.

Operationally, IIS is closely affiliated with three sister entities—Midwest Finishing, Lincoln Chemical, and Clover Machinery Movers—forming a loose industrial services ecosystem covering finishing, chemical cleaning/maintenance, and machinery relocation that complements IIS's core installation work. The company is independently owned with no disclosed parent, institutional investors, or public listing indicators.
