A Major Milestone for Metals Fab

“I always had a dream to build a big business,” says Mark Weaver, who founded Metals Fabrication Company in his north Spokane garage in 1966. “I had no idea how many years it would take.” Fewer than most would have imagined: Mark’s one-man operation is now one of the largest structural steel fabricators in the nation, with 150 employees working two daily shifts to produce as much as 21,000 tons of the stuff every year. To help celebrate this remarkable achievement – “only in America,” according to Weaver – helveticka teamed up with ILF Media and Aldon Baker Music Group to produce a video that takes a look at Metals Fab’s past and offers a vision of the company’s future. Working with second-generation owners Todd Weaver and Sara Weaver-Lundberg, helveticka and its partners provided concept development, creative direction, filming, editing, and original music for the film.
