Sales
Feroleto knows steel—how to buy, process, store and deliver—from 100# to truckload quantities. We work with customers to achieve significant cost reductions and help select the inventory management system that will work for them. Steel delivery and inventory control systems vary by customer need, but universally, they report that working with Feroleto has improved cash flow, reduced warehousing costs and improved materials management.
Feroleto employees are dedicated to serving our customers’ needs and are supported by a number of in-house systems. Of particular importance is our system that tracks and compiles specifications electronically.
In addition, all production is monitored and tracked by an Integrated Statistical Process Control system. The on-line system provides for prompt and accurate identification of inventory, end use related applications, sequential production scheduling and guaranteed Just-In-Time Delivery.

Warehousing/JIT
The majority of customers prefer the Just-In-Time delivery system. Most customers have prearranged deadlines based upon their steel needs and are dictated by manufacturing scheduling. However, many of our customers are using “ lean manufacturing” systems, produce steel-based end products in smaller batches with differing production schedules. In these situations, we work out innovative approaches to serve their needs and requirements.
Many specifiers and purchasing managers select Feroleto Steel based upon our flexability, quality record, delivery performance and responsiveness.
Packaging
Feroleto maintains a high level of customer satisfaction by assuring that packaging of products receives the same expert attention our other services receive. Special packaging to customers’ specification is available upon request.
Feroleto has installed a radio frequency bar code scanning system throughout their plants to track material and control inventory. Customer orders are shipped with tags using specified formats to enable them to receive product using their own bar code scanning devices or human readable information.
Shipping
Feroleto owns and operates its own fleet of trucks, making delivery and distribution just one more aspect of its quality controlled, service drive operation.
