Buffalo Wire acquires Bison Steel

Theย Buffalo Wire Works Bison Steel acquisitionย marks an important step forward forย Buffalo Wire Works Co. Inc.ย as it continues to expand its range of advanced screening products. The company has acquiredย Bison Steel, a Depew, New Yorkโ€‘based manufacturer known for its highly abrasionโ€‘resistant welded wire screens used in aggregate and mining operations.

Founded inย 1869, Buffalo Wire Works has grown into a trusted name serving industries such asย aggregate, mining, recycling, industrial processing, asphalt, slag, green waste, topsoil, and architectural design. The addition of Bison Steelโ€™s proprietary wire screens expands Buffalo Wireโ€™s reach and enhances its product innovation.

According to the company, this move supports the brandโ€™s mission to offer customersย longerโ€‘lasting, higherโ€‘performing screening solutions. A representative stated, โ€œBuffalo Wire Works is excited to launch this product as part of our everโ€‘growing product suite.โ€

Bison Steelย has built its reputation onย highโ€‘abrasionโ€‘resistant welded wire screens, particularly valued in theย aggregate and mining industries. Using a proprietary welding process, theseย highโ€‘carbon steel screensย achieve exceptional hardnessโ€”up toย 500 Brinellโ€”and resist abrasion under heavy use.

These welded wire screens lastย up to three times longerย than traditional woven screens. As a result, they significantlyย reduce maintenance costsย andย increase production efficiency by as much as 15%. Their unmatched durability provides continuous operation in tough environments where downtime and wear can lead to major losses.

By integrating Bison Steelโ€™s technology,ย Buffalo Wire Worksย reinforces its commitment to innovation and performance. The acquisition aligns with the companyโ€™s goal of deliveringย advanced screening materialsย that meet evolving industry demands while maintaining the legacy of quality established over more than 150 years of operation.
