Priefert

When you think of Priefert -- maybe it's ranch equipment, rodeo equipment, our steel division, or something else that comes to mind. A fact you may not know if you've never visited yourself is that the main Priefert campus located in Mt Pleasant, Texas is 40 acres under roof and has over 200 acres dedicated to manufacturing. The family's ranch, which you can catch a glimpse of in the top right of this photo, is the first proving ground for the vast majority of Priefert products. That's why we say "Built by Ranchers, for Ranchers". Durability, versatility, and functionality are combined with first-rate craftsmanship and an eye for detail as products are made to fit the needs and demands of a growing market. Cattle ranchers with herds from 10 to 10,000, horse owners seeking safety for their animals and ease of operation, and people who simply embrace the rural lifestyle and the western way of life have all helped build this company. Those same folks, along with the Priefert family, will continue to ensure a bright future for Priefert Manufacturing. #priefert #madeinamerica #manufacturing

In this land that is so blessed, never forget where our freedom comes from. God bless America. Priefert will be closed today in observance of Independence Day. Have a safe and happy 4th of July! #IndependenceDay

While the years have brought many changes for the Priefert family and their business, some things have remained the same. Motivated by the pride of ownership and the challenge of finding a better way, the Priefert family has built a business focused on meeting the needs of the American farmer and rancher. Hard work, good people, a willingness to step “outside the box,” and abundant blessings from God have allowed the company to not only grow and prosper, but also to earn a strong reputation in the industry for integrity, quality, and reliability. #priefert #madeinamerica

"This partnership demonstrates American innovation at its finest.” - Rocky Christenberry Priefert is a proudly #American company. For 60 years, we’ve been able to support hundreds of good-paying American #jobs by producing the best equipment for American farmers and ranchers, American #manufacturing, and the American #solar industry. High-end #steel equipment allows countless ranchers and factories to produce products that power the American economy. So, it stands to reason that when companies want to use steel to solve some of the thorniest issues challenging entire industries, they would turn to Priefert. Among the best examples is Origami Solar, with whom we just formed a https://lnkd.in/e8p-79Gr partnership to manufacture patented steel solar module frames for the American solar industry, using American steel, in America. These frames, which Origami expertly engineered to leverage high-strength steel’s unique durability, will solve countless problems for the American solar industry. Most importantly, they will all but eliminate the enormous risk that comes with relying on imported aluminum solar module frames, which have been industry-standard for decades. The frames mostly come from China. They’re subject to tariffs and delays from customs investigations. They take a minimum of forty days to reach the U.S., and that can get much worse if there are backups at major ports or canals. Worst of all, producing them in the U.S. isn’t realistic; the U.S. has limited aluminum extrusion capacity, and the aluminum it does produce is prohibitively expensive. Origami’s steel solar module frames virtually eradicate those risks. They’ll be coming from places like Priefert’s Benton, Arkansas facility, where we can reach any solar module manufacturing facility in the U.S. in a day or two. Further, The American steel industry can easily produce enough high-strength steel to fabricate every steel solar frame America will ever need. For a proudly American company like Priefert, however, the greatest benefit is that Origami’s steel solar module frames will help us keep American steelworkers doing what they do best. This partnership is enabling us to keep our Benton, Arkansas facility open and operating. That means our current skilled workers get to keep doing what they love, and we could expand to up to an additional 70 skilled workers over the next three years. For 60 years, we’ve witnessed America innovate and work its way through some of the most complex challenges. Our partnership with Origami is another great example.

Today marks an important day in the revitalization and reshoring of America’s clean energy supply chain. Origami is proud to announce our domestic #supplychain partners: Welser Profile, Priefert, and Unimacts Global, LLC – three of the world’s premier steel fabricators. Together with these partners, we are producing roll-formed steel module frames - directly addressing the ongoing supply chain risk issue that our collective #solar industry is rightfully concerned about. Instead of relying on lightweight metals like aluminum - the large majority of which is imported and at risk to the whims of geopolitics and ongoing tariffs - for solar module frames, we’ve secured a fully American supply chain for the production of a more durable, and more reliable, solar module frame utilizing #steel. This partnership will produce #USjobs and an empirically superior product, as proven by rigorous third-party testing results earlier this spring. Origami is proud to continue working alongside these three partners to support the domestic solar supply chain - and plans to ship products in Q1 2025. #DomesticSupplyChain #MadeinAmerica #RenewableEnergy #SolarManufacturing #IRA https://lnkd.in/e8p-79Gr

We are thrilled to reflect on the success of our second Priefert Jr Elite Roundup of the year and eagerly anticipate what the rest of 2024 holds for our talented young athletes. Now in its fifth year, the Priefert Jr Elite (PJE) program aims to cultivate future leaders in the sport of rodeo. Selected participants receive a one-year partnership with Priefert, offering numerous benefits, including a 3-day training camp at the Priefert Ranch. Here, they train with instructors from the Priefert Pro Team, focusing on leadership development and character building. This program provides a unique perspective on the industry through the experiences of Priefert Pro Team athletes and various Western Industry partners. We are also proud to highlight the members of our Jr Elite Ambassador Program. This complimentary program allows past team members to continue their partnership with Priefert. Both Team Members and Ambassadors have the privilege of wearing an exclusive Priefert Jr Elite sponsor patch, joining monthly team conference calls, and often being featured on Priefert’s social media channels. With so many remarkable young individuals participating in and advancing the sport of rodeo, the future looks incredibly promising. Priefert is honored to support these athletes and their families, and we look forward to sharing their stories through our programs. #priefert #priefertjrelite #youthprogram

Making our innovative solar trackers here in the U.S. isn’t just a feel-good story. It’s key to our strategy, ensuring a reliable supply chain to deliver for solar developers across the U.S. Many trackers travel thousands of miles on cargo ships before they reach your project site. Shipments can be held up in ports or by Customs and Border Protection, leading to big delays. And as equipment is passed from the factory, to the warehouse, to the port, to the ship, and onward, each step along the way increases the potential for damage by the time it finally reaches its destination. Thanks to our partnership with Priefert, our All Terrain Trackers are crafted from high-quality American steel in Mount Pleasant, Texas, allowing fast, scalable production and delivery across the U.S. to meet even the most demanding project timelines. We recently had the opportunity for our partners and customers to visit the factory and see what made in America really looks like, with raw steel coils coming in the door and top-quality trackers going out, all in one facility. Reach out today to learn more about how we ensure market-leading reliability from purchase order to plant commissioning. #TheWorldIsNotFlat #NoMoreGrading #MadeInAmerica #ReliableSolar #Onshoring

Big Ass Fans are designed to perform in the harshest environments and provide comfort to hard-working employees. Our AirEye fan is IPX5 wet-rated for indoor/outdoor use in dusty, soggy, or rugged environments and produces 50% more airflow with 50% greater efficiency than typical high-speed directional fans. And it can use infrared motion sensors to know if people are working, or if it’s clear to shut down and conserve energy. Pretty cool, right? 📍Priefert
