75th Anniversary
The year 2022 marked a milestone event: Stainless’ 75th anniversary! Stainless was established in 1947 by Walter L. Guzewicz, Henry J. Guzewicz, and Richard J. Eberle. For over 75 years, Stainless has maintained the founders’ spirit of innovation and has served as a trusted partner to the industry’s top broadcasters and tower owners. Still known as “The Tough Guys” of tall tower building, Stainless’ engineering and field operations teams remain unmatched in experience and expertise.
