Poynette Ironworks is the Midwest’s largest and most reliable manufacturer of large-scale, heavy duty manufactured steel products.  It was founded in 1996 and has since grown to a 110,000 square foot facility with more than 85 employees.  From roll-off boxes, flatbed trucks, and large-scale dewatering boxes, to commercial trash dumpsters, receivers, and self-dumping hoppers, they help their customers meet all of their dumpster and container needs.

While they specialize in refuse and recycling containers – including signature products such as small box and large box containers for residential, commercial, construction, industrial and other applications – they also manufacture specialty use items such as chipper boxes, dock carts, grease bins and sea crates. They also run a full custom shop to build any product their customers can imagine.

Penda is a manufacturing facility, owned by Kruger Family Industries (KFI).  KFI is a family-owned manufacturing company focused on thermoformed reusable plastic packaging, OEM components, automotive accessories, and steel racking. KFI is the parent company of four manufacturing facilities across the United States and Mexico, employing approximately one thousand people. The company consists of TriEnda Holdings, L.L.C. and Penda, both located in Portage, Wisconsin. Along with another manufacturing facility in Lerma, Mexico, and one in Arlington, TX, which focuses on custom metal racking solutions for automotive material handling.
