Bil-Jax Celebrates 60th Year in Business
ARCHBOLD, OH - From its humble beginnings in 1947, Bil-Jax has become one of the most recognized brand names in the rental industry. As the largest scaffold manufacturer in the United States, Bil-Jax continues to invest substantial resources for new product development, upholding the company’s tradition of providing innovative, top quality equipment.
The Bil-Jax story unfolds in 1946 when two brothers, Bill and Jack Ashenfelter, designed a “scaffold horse” (forerunner to the modern day utility scaffold) to assist them with their plastering trade. The concept produced such time-saving results that word spread quickly and they were soon manufacturing units for other tradesmen. With demand growing, the Ashenfelter brothers sold the product rights of their invention to a local Archbold, Ohio family in 1947, thus began the Bil-Jax legacy. |
 |
Joining the American Rental Association in 1964, Bil-Jax experienced tremendous growth throughout the 60’s, 70’ and 80’s. A line of telescopic and towable boom lifts was put into production in the late 70’s, adding to their growing line of rental industry products. Rapid growth continued in the mid 90’s after the company was sold to a German entity. During this time frame, Bil-Jax pioneered the powder coat finishing systems that are common within the industry today, as well as being the first to use ID coated tube to prolong the life of their scaffold products.
|
| The 21st Century brought about the purchase of Bil-Jax by the current management team and a private U.S. investment group. Today Bil-Jax produces frame, system, and utility scaffolds, walkboards and other scaffolding accessories, shoring frames and accessories, trailer-mounted boom lifts, telescopic lifts, material lifts, event staging and seating, as well drywall equipment, log splitters, loading ramps, trash removal systems and crowd barricade fencing. Building on their reputation of producing quality products, Bil-Jax has also become known for their outstanding customer service, both before and after the sale, setting them apart from industry competitors. |
