The first facility was in a corner of our dismantling garage, and was used to build forks for ourselves. As word spread, other businesses in our area began asking us to make forks for them.
Finance
Finance department is responsible for billing customers, shipping products and paying vendors. We at SAS pride ourselves on our determination to be a financially strong profitable company. A constant eye on profitability and expenses to give our customers the best prices available at all times.
Engineering
SAS Forks is comprised of two full time mechanical engineers and a mechanical designer that design, develop, test, and validate all new products for SAS Forks. They are also in charge of optimizing current products to ensure the customer is receiving the best product. During the development process of new products as well as improvements on existing products, complete stress and fatigue analysis are performed to ensure the product meets the high standards that SAS Forks sets for their products. The engineering department works with production and fabrication personnel developing and improving upon the processes and procedures utilized throughout the manufacturing facility. Because the engineers are directly involved with the development and improvement processes of all products, they ensure the highest quality vendors are selected as well as finest materials are utilized in products produced by SAS Forks.
Patents
SAS Forks holds multiple patents on our products and we consistently strive to build quality products that innovate and improve our attachment offering. Highly patented, highly defendable and highly innovative products make sense.
These are just a few of the reasons why SAS Forks prides themselves not only in their employees, company culture but their full product line as well.
