Laurel Steel's 350,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility in Burlington, Ontario, Canada enables efficient and effective production of high quality cold-finished steel bar and cold-drawn steel wire products.

Although the company maintains a quantity of finished inventory, manufacturing is based on a pull system. Production is always moving to meet customer's needs. With the shortest manufacturing lead times in the industry, Laurel Steel has developed a streamlined production process.

This process includes the world's largest KASTO Unicompact Storage System, which improves efficiency and manufacturing capacity, and also ensures quality. The automated racking system allows Laurel to identify, retrieve and ship product quickly, cutting down order fulfillment times.

The KASTO system also includes double heaters and controlled humidity systems, that eliminate condensation on steel that is being stored and reducing the chance of corrosion.
