Forge Crate & Industrial Manufacturing Inc.
Industrial Crating Engineered for Protection, Compliance, and Confidence
When shipping valuable machinery or industrial components, failure is not an option. Forge Crate & Industrial Manufacturing Inc. designs and builds custom wooden crates that protect your product from the moment it leaves your facility until it reaches its destination.
Since 1976, manufacturers across Evansville and the surrounding region have relied on us for precision-built, export-ready wooden crates made from properly sourced, heat-treated American lumber.
Crates Built Around Your Equipment
Reliable Shipping Solutions
Our custom wooden crates are designed specifically for:
• Industrial machinery and assemblies
• Automation systems and control panels
• Fabricated metal components
• High-value or sensitive equipment
Every crate is engineered to account for:
• Weight and load distribution
• Handling method (forklift, crane, rigging)
• Domestic or international shipping requirements
We do not offer “standard” crate sizes — because your equipment isn’t standard.
