ABOUT US
A Legacy of Excellence and Innovation
Who We Are
Founded in 1979 as Sarlo Certified Welding, our company began with a focus on precision welding and quickly earned a reputation for craftsmanship and dependability. In 1983, we reached a defining moment when we constructed our first gas station canopy in New Castle, Delaware. This milestone marked the beginning of our shift toward specialized canopy construction.
By 1985, in response to increasing demand, we rebranded as SARLO Corporation, expanding our capabilities to focus on service station canopy construction, rebranding, convenience store facades, and signage solutions. Since then, we’ve continued to grow, serving a diverse range of industries, including petroleum, retail, automotive, marine, and financial sectors.
Our evolution has been driven by a deep understanding of our clients’ needs and a commitment to delivering comprehensive, end-to-end project execution. From planning and permitting to construction and installation, SARLO Corporation brings a hands-on, detail-oriented approach that ensures each project meets the highest standards.
