The company has built over 10,000 prisons spread across all 50 states, Puerto Rico, Canada and South Africa.

American Steel Products is a privately-owned company with its corporate offices and manufacturing facility located in Swainsboro, Georgia. The company operates an 80,000 square foot manufacturing facility, newly constructed in 1995, and employs an 80-person workforce. The company also maintains satellite offices in both the New York and Atlanta areas.

COMPANY HISTORY

In 1933, a small, family-owned manufacturing business called American Steel was started in Brooklyn, NY. In 1973, the business was moved to Farmingdale, Long Island, NY where it remained until 1995. In 1995, the company was relocated to Swainsboro, GA where the company today operates a modern, state of the art manufacturing facility. American Steel currently operates debt-free while having invested heavily in capital upgrades, ranging from new equipment to new corporate offices.

Having developed a reputation for on-time delivery of quality prison equipment, American Steel is poised to consistently secure a sizeable share of the federal, state, and local detention and prison equipment market. Given national security concerns ranging from domestic crime, to illegal immigration, to international terrorism threats; the company’s potential for long-term growth and sustained success are bright.

ASP employees are the driving force behind the company’s success. According to ASP President and CEO Ken Feldman, “The company’s greatest asset is its employees. Their hard work, commitment, and unwavering loyalty fuels and sustains the company’s growth and success. I am very proud of these people and admire their dedication and sense of purpose, and the respect with which they treat one another. They unselfishly put the needs of the company ahead of their own. This, I feel, is our most rewarding accomplishment. Working with them is a true privilege.”

MISSION STATEMENT

ASP’s continuing challenge and mission is to build the premier detention equipment manufacturing company in the nation; while creating a model company that honors commitments to customers, employees, community, and suppliers.
