Badger Sheet Metal

What Badger Sheet Metal does

Badger Sheet Metal LLC is a privately held, Wisconsin-based custom sheet metal fabrication shop operating from a single 15,000 sq. ft. facility in DeForest, WI. The firm designs, fabricates, welds (Mig, Tig, Arc, and Spot across most steel alloys), forms, plasma-cuts, finishes (grinding, polishing, plating, painting), and on-site installs metal components for three primary verticals: industrial manufacturing (including medical, foundry/dust collection, electronics/electro-mechanical, and agriculture customers), HVAC (ductwork, enclosures, dust collection), and food processing (sanitary carts, hoods, tables, tanks, conveyors, and platforms). The company emphasizes full-service delivery from initial design through field installation, demolition, repair, rigging, and crane picking.

The business operates on a project-based, quote-driven model with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers, no recurring subscription or SaaS-style contracts, and no digital self-serve channel. Go-to-market is direct and consultative, with field measurement services supporting bid work for facility managers and procurement decision-makers in Wisconsin. Revenue streams are organized around three one-time service lines — custom fabrication, assembly, and field installation/repair — with no recurring or contracted maintenance revenue identified in the source data. The firm has over 65 years of operating experience and has recently invested in new equipment technology to broaden capability scope, but no funding rounds, M&A, partnerships, leadership changes, certifications, patents, or geographic expansion beyond Wisconsin are documented.
