Chicago Boiler Company—Over a Century of Innovation
Chicago Boiler was established in 1891, and from our humble beginnings, our focus has been on quality and a desire to constantly improve. That same focus and desire drive CB Mills Innovation today.
We evolved from a simple boiler repair shop in the 1890s to becoming today’s industry-leading designer and fabricator of grinding mills, wash systems, solvent recovery systems, and custom steel tanks. Our media grinding mills are used by leading companies in industries including ink, paint, agrochemical, electronics, and mineral processing. Our custom steel tank fabrication continues to complement our engineered solutions, providing system continuity that dramatically improves our customers’ competitive position.
