Warehouse Leadman
About the Company
At Triple‑S Steel we live and work by our core values. Since our inception over 50 years ago, we have followed three basic principles that are the foundation of our success:
- Stability: All decisions made are measured in years, not quarters.
- Flexibility: Employees are encouraged to seek creative steel solutions and services that help the company thrive.
- Chemistry: We foster and nurture an entrepreneurial spirit throughout the Triple‑S family. That spirit permeates our DNA.
From a small family retail operation in Houston, our business has expanded across the US and South America to sell over 1 million tons per year. We supply steel for bridges, stadiums, barges and large buildings, but one thing will always remain the same: we treat our customers and employees like family.
