In 1994, EVS Metal began its operations with a vision to redefine industry standards through a commitment to quality, customer service, and technological innovation. Starting with a modest, 5000 sq ft sheet metal fabrication facility in New Jersey, the company quickly distinguished itself by adopting advanced manufacturing techniques and investing in state-of-the-art equipment.

Facilities Expansions

Over the next three decades, EVS Metal expanded its footprint significantly. In 2001, the company ventured into Pflugerville, Texas, opening a facility with a dedicated CNC machining shop. This was followed by the expansion into Keene, New Hampshire in 2008, further broadening its capabilities and geographic reach. In 2012, EVS opened its first facility in Pennsylvania, before moving to its current Stroudsburg location, just across town from the original, in 2022.

Technological Investments

EVS Metal’s 30 year journey has been marked by a relentless pursuit of excellence, not just in the quality of its products but also in its manufacturing processes. Central to this pursuit is the company’s strategic investment in the latest manufacturing technology. From in-house powder coating lines to advanced CNC machine shops and comprehensive automation strategies, EVS Metal has distinguished itself as one of the most respected metal fabricators in the industry. These investments not only streamline operations and improve efficiency but also reinforce EVS Metal’s commitment to delivering superior, durable products to a wide range of industries. 

In-House Automated Powder Coating Lines

EVS Metal’s strategic decision to integrate in-house automated powder coating lines across all four of its facilities underscores a deep commitment to delivering products that stand the test of time. This significant technological advancement sets EVS Metal apart from many in the metal fabrication industry, offering a clear competitive edge.

Automated powder coating lines enable a more efficient, consistent, and high-quality application of powder coating compared to manual processes. This automation ensures that each product receives a uniform coat, resulting in finishes that are not only visually more appealing but also more resistant to chipping, scratching, and fading over time. The ability to control the thickness and texture of the coating with precision also means that products are better protected against corrosion, enhancing their durability and longevity, ultimately delivering a higher-quality product.

Advanced CNC Machining Shops

EVS Metal’s advanced CNC machining shops are equipped with the latest in computer numerical control (CNC) technology, allowing for the automation of machine tools with incredible precision based on programmed instructions. This capacity for high-precision machining enables EVS Metal to produce complex parts that meet exact specifications, which is essential for industries where even the slightest deviation can have significant consequences, such as transportation, medical devices, and defense.

The investment in these state-of-the-art CNC machining centers is a reflection of the company’s forward-thinking philosophy. By continuously updating their technology and processes, EVS ensures that they can offer the most efficient and precise machining capabilities available. This not only enhances production capabilities but also reduces turnaround times, providing clients with faster delivery of their custom components without compromising on quality.
