Heidtman Steel was formed in 1954 by Fredrick William Heidtman. At that time, the small company only offered leveling and shearing services. Heidtman Steel Products Inc. became incorporated in 1962.
In subsequent years, the Ohio-based company expanded its capabilities, invested heavily equipment, and acquired or built additional facilities in the industrial Midwest.
Steel slitting capabilities were greatly enhanced in the early 70s. By mid-decade, the automotive industry began seeking ways to reduce weight and increase fuel efficiency. Heidtman responded by pioneering the marketing of high strength low alloy sheet steels in the service center industry. Its sophisticated equipment, application expertise, and an ability to supply the most difficult high strength steel applications helped set Heidtman apart from the rest of the service center industry.
