Keystone Steel & Wire Company, founded in
1889 represents more than 110 years of American-made steel and
wire products. The company's name was derived from the keystone-shaped
mesh of the first fence manufactured near Dillon, Illinois.
Since the early 1900's, Red Brand ® has been a household
name on American farms. The red coloured wire, a familiar trademark,
got its start from an early marketing genius who decided to
dip the top of eystone fence rolls into red paint. The Red Brand
logo has come to stand for the most complete line of high quality
wire, fence and nails that are produced in the United States.
This reputation has led Red Brand to be recognized in the USA
as "The most respected name in
farm fence".
Today, Keystone is the market leader for farm
fencing in the US. The Company has the capacity to smelt up
to one million tonnes of steel per annum through it's own in
house electric arc furnace. Steel billets are cast and then
hot rolled into continuous wire rod coils. Using a series of
precise dies, rod is then drawn into wire of exact specifications
for use in many types of finished fencing product.
Wire is galvanized and converted in house into
finished product including stock fence, barbed wire horse fence
and many domestic fencing products. Keystone quality control
systems are strictly implemented throughout this process to
ensure that finished products meet the customers exacting standards.
