Our History

Meeting Our Goal: Provide Quality Steel Erection Services

Ropac, Inc. was established 10/01/1985, under the ownership of Roy H. Davis and Patricia H. Davis. Our goal was to provide quality steel erection services throughout the southeast. We are proud that we have not only achieved, but, surpassed our original goal.

With over 50 years combined experience, all phases of the steel industry are covered by one central location. Over 10,000 square feet of shop and office facilities offer the opportunity to provide quality work at a reasonable price. Our service record can be confirmed by contacting any of our references.

Ropac, Inc. started with a handful of employees. Today, 30 years later, six of those original employees are still employed and are a vital part of our operation.

Our customers in 1985 are still our customers today.
