Your One-Stop Wholesale Supplier
STS Industrial, Inc. has been a trusted name in the industrial supply sector since 1983, catering to the needs of customers across the region. Founded in Sulphur, LA, the company has undergone remarkable expansions and transformations to better serve its ever-growing customer base. Over the years, STS has solidified its reputation as a reliable supplier of fasteners, pipe hangers, cutting tools, gaskets, and more recently, pipe, valves, and fittings.
In 2014, STS took a significant stride forward by acquiring a new location in Orange, TX. This expansion marked the beginning of a series of strategic moves aimed at enhancing the company’s service capabilities. In 2018, the company ventured into the pipe, valve, and fitting side of the industry, establishing a solid foundation in La Porte, TX. The company’s continuous pursuit of excellence and commitment to its core values paved the way for further expansions, moving its La Porte facility to a new location in Pasadena, TX., and additional warehousing in Sulphur, LA., taking the company’s logistics capabilities a step further.
Faced with the challenges of 2020, STS demonstrated resilience and adaptability. By embracing innovative approaches and offering solutions alongside industrial goods, the company experienced substantial growth. Scott Habetz, CFO of STS emphasized that “we strategically positioned ourselves to thrive in an uncertain economy.” In January of 2021, STS propelled itself into new markets across the nation with the launch of its enterprisescale e-commerce website. The innovative platform was designed with the customer experience in mind, offering not only online ordering but also a wealth of additional technical resources.
The resounding success and rapid growth witnessed over the last several years can be attributed to STS’s steadfast commitment to its core values. These values, including uncompromising diligence, a relentless pursuit of excellence, dependability, professionalism, a customerfirst mindset, and a penchant for innovation, continue to drive the company in the right direction and on the right track to better serve their customers. The company’s broad client base encompasses refineries, chemical plants, machine shops, construction companies, contractors, fabricators, and heavy equipment mechanics, among many others.

And the Wireless Warehouse System allows for 100% lot isolation, location tracked-barcoded management of inventory at the highest level.
