Ulbrich Stainless Steel & Special Metals Celebrates a Century of Excellence

Ulbrich Stainless Steel & Special Metals, a global leader in precision metals manufacturing, proudly announces its 100th anniversary as a family-owned company. This remarkable milestone commemorates a century of unwavering commitment to quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction.

Founded in 1924 by Fred Ulbrich Sr. in Wallingford, CT, Ulbrich Stainless Steel & Special Metals has evolved from a small iron and steel scrapyard into a world-renowned leader in metals products, recognized for its dedication to excellence, advancements in manufacturing, and exceptional customer service. The company has domestic divisions in Connecticut, Illinois, South Carolina, and California, as well as international divisions in Austria, Canada, and Mexico.

Over the past century, Ulbrich has consistently delivered high-quality stainless steel and special metal products to various industries, from aerospace and automotive applications to medical devices, telecommunications, power generation, and consumer products.

Ulbrich products are even present at pivotal moments in history. American service members carried Ulbrich metal in their mess kits during the Second World War, and when Apollo 11 landed on the moon, it was with components rolled at Ulbrich's flagship strip mill in Wallingford, CT.

The company's commitment to evolving with the needs of its customers has paved the way for continuous metallurgical innovation, ensuring that Ulbrich remains at the forefront of precision metals manufacturing.

"Our 100th anniversary is a testament to the dedication and hard work of every member of the Ulbrich team over the years," said Chris Ulbrich, CEO of Ulbrich Stainless Steel & Special Metals. "We are immensely proud of our heritage and the contributions we've made to various industries.
