85 Years of Experience

Since 1935

Capital Steel was founded in 1935 by Paul Waldheim, a German immigrant who arrived in the U.S. with a vision to achieve the American dream. While the country was starting to recover from the Great Depression and Buffalo’s economy was expanding, Paul recognized the perfect opportunity to establish a small steel fabrication enterprise where he could apply the skills he had developed while working with his family back in Germany.

Our fabrication facility has since grown from its modest origins in the Buffalo University District, to a 40,000 Sq/Ft facility located in North Tonawanda, New York. Originally known as Waldheim Iron Works, new ownership changed the name to Capital Steel in 2006 when it moved the operation a larger, more modern facility.
