Tom-Cin Metals elevated their online presence with a modern WordPress redesign and secure managed hosting, aligning their digital platform with the scale and sophistication of their fabrication capabilities. This transformation enabled them to showcase complex services while ensuring operational reliability for critical industry partners.
The Challenge
With over 40 years of experience serving industries like feed mills, truck manufacturing, and paper mills, Tom-Cin Metals needed a digital platform that matched their state-of-the-art 65,000-square-foot facility. Their hurdles included:
- Platform Obsolescence: Their existing site required a modernization of its architecture to better showcase their extensive fabrication capabilities and custom products.
- Complex Service Catalog: From high-definition plasma cutting to automated micro-systems and bolted steel bins, the site needed to organize a vast array of technical services into an intuitive user experience.
- Operational Reliability: As a mission-critical supplier for industries like the military and agriculture, they required a high-performance hosting environment with zero tolerance for downtime.
The WebCitz Solution
We implemented an “Industrial-Strength” digital roadmap, providing the technical backstop for their national operations:
- Strategic WordPress Redesign (2022): We led the complete redesign of their website, migrating their content into a modern WordPress framework. This provided their team with a more flexible CMS while significantly improving the visual presentation of their projects and high-tech equipment (such as their Mitsubishi 4000-watt lasers).
- Managed Hosting & Infrastructure: Since the launch, we have provided a secure, managed hosting environment. This ensures that their digital “front door” is always open for major trading partners and mechanical contractors seeking reliable fabrication services.
- Routine Technical Stewardship: We perform ongoing maintenance to keep the WordPress core, themes, and plugins updated. This proactive approach prevents technical debt and ensures the site remains secure against evolving threats.
- Content Integrity: We provide on-call support for site updates, ensuring that their list of capabilities – ranging from 3D laser measuring to AWS-certified welding – remains accurate and professionally presented.
The Result
By 2026, Tom-Cin Metals maintains a polished, authoritative digital presence that reflects their status as a leader in the metal fabrication industry. Our work successfully transitioned their brand into a modern ecosystem, providing the scalability needed to showcase their growth and innovation. By trusting WebCitz with their hosting and maintenance for the past four years, Tom-Cin Metals has ensured their technical foundation is as solid as the steel storage systems they build.
