What Brock Industrial Inc does

Brock Industrial Systems, a division of CTB, Inc. (a Berkshire Hathaway company), designs and manufactures bolted-steel industrial storage silos, material conveying systems, and secondary containment systems for plastics, petroleum, and chemical customers. Founded in 1957 in Milford, Indiana to serve the agricultural feed and grain market, the company pivoted to industrial storage and conveying in the early 1980s and added containment systems in the 1990s. Its product line centers on unskirted and skirted hopper-bottom storage silos (capacities from 35 to 6,800 cubic feet), the FLEX-AUGER PLUS one-piece spiral steel auger conveying system (in operation for over 40 years), G-90 galvanized steel secondary containment systems, and surge tanks — all built around a modular bolt-together design intended for customization, expansion, and relocation.

Brock sells directly to industrial manufacturing facilities in the United States through an enterprise field-sales model, with no distributor or reseller network. Pricing is quote-based, with in-house engineering support available for custom system design and material testing, and engagements structured as multi-year contracts. The company operates two manufacturing facilities — its Milford, Indiana headquarters and a Kansas City, Missouri plant for containment systems — within CTB's broader portfolio of agricultural, food processing, and building systems businesses. Revenue, headcount within Brock specifically, and named customers are not disclosed; the firm reports 1-10 employees in firmographic data, with the parent organization providing broader operational scale.
