Stainless Steel TIG/MIG Fabricator

Who We Are

Norchem builds the equipment that keeps the commercial laundry industry running cleaner and greener. For 40 years we've been the ones behind the industry's biggest leaps - low-temperature cleaning systems, single-VFD automated injection, crossflow membrane filtration and recycling, and plant utility/labor information systems. We don't copy what's out there. We build what's next.

Right now our fabrication shop is busy, and we need a skilled hand who can lay down clean stainless bead and fit like they mean it.
