History
Sterling Industrial was founded and incorporated in 1982 in Evansville, Indiana. Our company began and grew from a need for swift, reliable service for utilities in southern Indiana. Meeting the needs of utilities through small emergencies, we found an increasing need to add services to our operation, and from there our company continued to grow. Sterling serves a variety of clients across various markets with our experienced team and expansive equipment fleet.
