Portland Kettle Works (“PKW”) was founded in 2011 in Portland, Oregon, USA. Over the past 11 years, PKW has become one of the world’s leading suppliers of stainless steel vessels for Beverage, Industrial and Life Science applications.

PKWs excellence in precision-built stainless-steel systems became synonymous with the collaborative spirit we foster. Startups found a partner in us, while established producers embraced our dedication to pushing boundaries without compromising service or quality.

Over the years, our innovative approach and excellence in precision engineering of stainless steel vessels expanded to include industrial / chemical, life science and beverage companies seeking custom design work and superior end products. 

PKW now proudly manufactures end-to-end systems for an extensive list of sub-sectors including all categories of beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, fertilizer, protein synthesis, and adhesives. Our clients run the gamut from startups through Fortune 500 Companies.  

We owe our experience to countless hours touring production facilities around the globe, working side by side with our clients to build to spec, and expertly installing over 400 complex systems worldwide.

“Clients view us as their creative partner,” says Thad Fisco, PKW founder. “We established PKW not just to build hardware but to accelerate clients through innovation.”

We’re passionate about the ongoing pursuit of creativity meeting precision, and see our client success as a narrative crafted one innovation at a time.
