Over 60 years after those humble beginnings, the former Carlson Stapler and Supply has grown into a corporation employing over 500 people. Though the name has been simplified to Carlson Systems, LLC, the familiar "CSS" logo has been retained to symbolize Carlson Systems' strategy of providing service and support to our customers.

Focusing on fastening, packaging and product assembly systems, our offices and warehouses serve thousands of customers. A network of problem solvers, we provide ideas and solutions in both the products we sell and the methods we advocate. We assist businesses to produce better products and improve productivity, as well as help them automate production and packaging lines.

With locations throughout an area primarily west of the Mississippi, our people and products are always close to our customers. All of our locations are networked together, allowing us to find whatever product a customer may desire. As a pioneering company and industry leader, we handle the premier product lines in fastening, packaging and materials handling--offering our customers the highest quality, supported by our network of repair service departments.

Carlson Systems, LLC is part of Carlson Holdings, Inc., along with three other companies: Advanced Connector Systems, LLC, Carlson Systems Engineering, LLC and Mid-Atlantic Fasteners, LLC.

The Carlson Systems Engineering, LLC division has operations in Omaha, Nebraska and Twinsburg, Ohio, and has designed and built hundreds of product assembly machines. The Omaha operations focus on wood-to-wood assembly systems, for industries like the manufactured housing industry, millwood industries, and other product assembly manufacturers. The Twinsburg operations were formerly known as Carlson Wegoma after its acquisition in 2003, but are now incorporated into the Carlson Systems Engineering division. They are primarily a manufacturer and supplier of fabrication machinery and automated systems for the vinyl and aluminum window & door manufacturing industry. The Twinsburg operation has been a recognized market leader in the North American fenestration industry for more than twenty years.

Mid-Atlantic Fasteners, acquired in May of 2006, started out of a garage in Baltimore just after World War II as a Duo-Fast distributor. Today they offer the leading brands in the construction industry and serve their customers at over twenty locations on the east coast, mostly in the Mid-Atlantic region. Focusing on product assembly systems including nailers, staplers, fasteners and accessories, they serve the needs of industrial and construction customers. They also offer industry-leading installation and repair in each of their locations.

Carlson Systems, LLC is an extremely diversified company that offers the highest quality in both service and supplies. From that initial location in 1947, Carlson Systems, LLC has grown exponentially. And with a solid force of over 500 employees in twenty western states, we are set to continue growing to serve our customers better.
