Moving slat conveyor systems, LIVE FLOOR®, were first introduced nearly 35 years ago by Hallco Manufacturing Co. in Tillamook, Oregon. Invented by founder Ole Hallstrom, the LIVE FLOORS® system was first used for the agricultural industry, but quickly expanded beyond this niche beginning. Emphasis on continual research and development, listening to customer feedback, and Hallco's Floor School, an innovative customer installation and maintenance training program, all contributed to Hallco Manufacturing Co.'s growth. In 2008 the controlling interest was sold and a new venture, Hallco Industries, Inc. was formed. The dedication of the Hallstrom family established Hallco as a dominant force in the bulk materials handling industry and the current employees and customers pay homage to this legacy. |
