How Prima delivers mission-critical infrastructure on time and in full.

Structural Steel
Structural Steel Texas, US

White Construction

General contractor delivering institutional and commercial construction projects across the United States.

Division 5 structural steel for the expansion and renovation of an occupied retirement home in Texas, covering beams, columns, stairs, and miscellaneous metals. Prima fabricated in Mexico, handled cross-border delivery, and executed on-site erection, with sequencing built around the active campus to keep facility operations uninterrupted throughout construction.

Dustin Construction

General contractor serving institutional and public sector clients across the Mid-Atlantic United States.

Structural steel fabrication, delivery, and installation for the Fred Lynn Middle School Renovation in Virginia, a public school project that ran on a live campus throughout construction. The scope covered structural framing, steel joists, metal roof decking, fabrications, and railings, all sequenced around active school hours.

Frialsa

National leader in cold-chain logistics and industrial refrigeration across Mexico.

Turnkey structural steel for a new Frialsa cold-storage facility in Monterrey, from engineering and fabrication through coating, logistics, and on-site assembly. Prima manufactured all trusses, beams, columns, purlins, and connections, applying a white water-based enamel coating for corrosion resistance. Parts were sequenced to arrive in installation order, and the structure was designed from the start to integrate screw conveyors, silos, and bucket elevators.

Owow Construction

Construction company building modular, high-density residential and mixed-use buildings across California.

Structural steel for Owow’s 1523 Harrison Street building in Oakland, covering a buckling-restrained braced frame (BRBF) seismic lateral system, base plates, anchor rods, façade structure, and miscellaneous metals. Prima ran shop drawing engineering, fabricated W beams, HSS elements, and connection plates, and coordinated cross-border export to California. Welding throughout was executed to AWS D1.8 seismic standards.

Takraf

Global leader in mining equipment, bulk materials handling, and processing systems for the extractive industries.

Engineering, sourcing, and fabrication of 600+ tons of high-resistance tubular steel support structures for a TAKRAF conveyor system in an active iron mine, with individual structures exceeding 20 meters in height. Prima ran procurement and fabrication across 5 specialized fabrication shops, hitting 100% USMCA origin compliance and a minimum yield strength of 50 ksi on all material. Every structure was pre-assembled on the ground to confirm fit before shipping to site.

Antora Energy

Cleantech company building thermal battery technology that stores renewable energy as heat and dispatches it as carbon-free industrial process heat and power.

Primary and secondary cooling system assemblies for Antora’s Gen1 thermal battery units, covering Module Inlet, Heater Inlet, and Heater Outlet piping modules plus secondary cooling troughs. The scope runs from DFM collaboration through material sourcing, fabrication (TIG and laser welding, tube bending, sheet metal forming), component integration, and cross-border logistics. Currently producing 20 systems per month on a recurring monthly PO.

Haskris

US based manufacturer of custom water chillers for semiconductor, medical, and advanced technology applications.

Structural chiller frames in stainless and carbon steel for Haskris industrial cooling units. Prima sourced materials, ran structural welding, rivet installation, and ornamental tube finishing, and inspected each kit before export. Frames shipped cross-border to the US under a first-article approval program.

Flowserve

Global manufacturer of flow control products and management systems for oil & gas, power generation, and water industries.

Motor manufacturing for Flowserve’s valve actuation product line, built as a Mexico-based alternative to a supply chain that previously ran exclusively through China. Prima brought casting, machining, and stamping under one roof, built the logistics to hit weekly delivery targets, and scaled from 10 units per month to 60 per week. Within six months, Flowserve added a fifth active part number to the program.

Veolia

Global leader in water treatment, waste management, and environmental services — critical infrastructure across more than 50 countries.

Frames, skids, and assemblies for reverse-osmosis and de-ionization processes across Veolia’s US water treatment systems. Veolia previously sourced these components from US at 50–60-day lead times. Prima built a Mexico-based supply chain that cut those timelines down, now running at 20 systems per year.
