Why we are better
equipped to build
your factory
In Philadelphia, "The Workshop of the World," Steele
stands foremost as the builder of industrial plants.
During: the 55 years of our career as industrial constructors,
we have planned, built and equipped many factories in Philadel
phia of all sorts and sizes some of them among the largest
in Philadelphia and in more than a hundred different lines of
industry.
Our knowledge of Philadelphia's industrial conditions is
derived from more than half a century of direct contact with its
commercial development.
Our extensive experience in solving the building problems
of most of its big manufacturing plants is the foundation of our
present service to the manufacturers of "The Workshop of the
World.
That's why so many out-of-town concerns, who contemplate
building in Philadelphia, first consult Steele. Not only concern
ing construction problems, but also in reference to location,
accessibility to water and rail transportation, power, water,
labor, etc.
Fifty per cent of our business today comes to us unsolicited
through clients whom we nave satisfactorily served in this
capacity. The other fifty per cent comes through our ability to
prove in advance the dollars and cents advantage of our service.
If you are a manufacturer thinking of building, rebuilding,
or adding to your plant, consult us. We shall be glad to explain
to you the value of The Steele Idea of Industrial Construction.
