We engineer, build, install, and support heavy-duty conveyor and material handling systems, robotic palletizing and stacking, automated sortation, custom machinery, and complete PLC/HMI controls for manufacturers of lumber, panels, gypsum, roofing, insulation, and other building products.
Rugged Automation for Building Products Manufacturing
Building materials production environments are demanding — heavy loads, abrasive dust, awkward product geometries, and high-volume throughput targets. J+H Automation Solutions delivers custom automation systems built to perform reliably in these conditions, helping building products manufacturers increase output, protect workers from heavy manual handling, and maintain consistent quality.
From raw material infeed to finished-goods palletizing, our systems are engineered for durability and uptime. We support manufacturers producing:
- Lumber and engineered wood products
- Gypsum, drywall, and wallboard
- Roofing, siding, and insulation products
- Concrete, masonry, and aggregate-based products
- Windows, doors, and millwork
