A Quick History

Incorporated on, November 1, 1928, in Horicon, Wisconsin by the Gardner family, Gardner Manufacturing Company began selling excess fabrication capacity to perform contract fabrication work for local Wisconsin Companies. In 1937, Gardner Manufacturing purchased the rights to a product line of electrified screens, and formed three product divisions- Barn Equipment, Sheet Metal Fabrication, and Insect Electrocutor, and remained relatively unchanged for the next forty years. The most recent of several expansions was completed in 2009, to a total of 160,000 square feet.

Today, as a Wisconsin State Certified business, Gardner Manufacturing continues to acquire the latest technology to stay at the forefront of advances in process improvement and efficiency. With over 120 employees and a 3-shift capability, we are ready to meet any challenge.
