A division of Steel Dynamics Inc. (SDI), New Millennium was founded in 1999 in Butler, Indiana, with one clear mission: To be a trusted collaborator for the design, engineering, and supply of structural steel joists and deck. Today, 25 years later, we’re one of the largest providers of high-performance structural steel joists, joist girders, and deck solutions for commercial steel construction projects.
“This is a business milestone we celebrate with great pride,” said Chad Bickford, Vice President of SDI’s steel fabrication group, New Millennium. “It’s a reflection of our people—not simply their work ethic over the years but also their remarkable commitment to innovation and collaboration. That’s why we are the world’s most efficient steel joist and steel deck company. People were the strength of our last 25 years of success, and they will also be the key to how we reach even higher in the future.”
Turning big ideas into better products and practices takes a willingness to think critically and act collaboratively. At New Millennium, we make innovation an everyday action.
From small, private owners to the largest developers, we work side by side with our customers to support every stage of a steel building project. It’s embedded in our company culture.
Our collaborative approach reflects a building owner’s point of view on project design achievement and structural cost containment. This uplifts the contributions and interests of everyone involved in a project, from owners and developers to fabricators, erectors, architects, and engineers.
