Plating Equipment
Since Bobby Smith first ventured into the world of plating equipment more than a quarter-century ago, Buchholz-Smith, Incorporated (BSI) has produced quality tanks, barrels, and replacement parts for the plating industry. What began as a humble one-building shop—where we meticulously approached each hand-welded project as if it could make or break our reputation—has grown into a thriving, five-building operation... where we still meticulously approach each fabrication project as if it could make or break our reputation.
Today, after purchasing the company from his father, Joey Smith leads the next generation of BSI, which remains an industry innovator. BSI forges time-tested products and lasting relationships, putting our polypropylene equipment to work for customers around the globe. Because we believe our reputation is only as solid as each product that leaves our facilities, we refuse to rest on our name or compromise our exacting approach. Starting with BSI leaves you equipped to guarantee a fine finish.
Finishing with Pride
BSI uses the best possible materials and the latest in fabrication technologies, so we can confidently guarantee our products will equip you to finish yours. Whatever size your application demands, however caustic your chemical, our formidable polypropylene tanks, barrels, and plating lines are built for performance over the long haul. We focus on every detail right from the start, so you can focus on the finish.
