History
Founded in 1887 by Edmund W. Heyl and William J. Patterson, Heyl & Patterson quickly set the industry standard for engineering and manufacturing world-class, heavy bulk materials handling equipment.
From our early days, when coal and steel dominated the market to today's technologically sophisticated bulk transfer and thermal processing equipment, Heyl & Patterson has achieved significant milestones along the way.
In the early 20th century Heyl & Patterson grew regionally as our customer base grew. By the 1930s to the 1950s, the company expanded its customer base to encompass all of North and South America, Asia and Australia, serving such industries as chemical, food, steel, pharmaceutical, power, ports, mining and minerals.
Offering consulting and field service through both its Bulk Transfer and Renneburg Divisions, Heyl & Patterson fabricates, installs and services quality custom engineered products, including Barge & Railcar Dumper Unloaders, Dryers, Coolers and Calciners tailored to the environmentally sensitive and production minded needs of the industries they serve.
Today, Heyl & Patterson continues to evolve with the industries it serves — combining cutting-edge technology innovation with the wealth of experience our customers have come to rely upon and trust to keep their businesses moving.
