Forrest Manufacturing Information

Since 1963, Forrest has been in Houston, Texas (US) designing and building specialty bandsaws and sheet metal fabrication equipment for the insulation fabrication industry. Over the decades, people in many *other* industries have discovered Forrest and asked us to build horizontal bandsaws and vertical bandsaws to cut products as diverse as plastic pipe, wallboard, vacuum-formed parts, graphite blocks, cooling tower filler media, urethane, Expanded PolyStyrene (EPS), and many other light- and medium- density materials. We also manufacture heated asphalt pans. Forrest specializes in modifying our basic designs for special applications. We love to hear from customers who start conversations by saying “You've probably never cut this before...” And that's not all! We sharpen industrial saws. We also sharpen commercial and industrial knives up to 18 feet loooooong.
