History

The History of LubeMate™

  Valley Engineering was founded in 1978.  It is a family owned company that was originally known as B.B.R. Machine,  located in Franklin, NE.  The company operated as a custom fabrication and machine shop, specializing in agricultural products.   B.B.R. Machine incorporated in 1992,  and was renamed Valley Engineering, Inc.  Valley Engineering then began designing custom lubrication trailers for a local contractor in the spring of 1992.  The company quickly found a niche in the market and started producing the 'LUBEMATE' , a full line of lube bodies, trailers and oil caddies.   Valley Engineering soon outgrew the small town of Franklin and the decision was made to move the company 70 miles Northeast to its current location of Hastings, NE in October of 2000.  While in Hastings, the company continues to grow, developing its product lines of slide in lube packs, mobile skid units, lubrication trucks, trailers and drawer packs.  As a testament to our quality, the original two trailers that were built in 1992 are still in service today! 

As times change, Valley Engineering is prepared to change and adapt with them.  We remain committed to our past, present and future customers and believe that the 'custom manufacturing' and design that we provide is what we were built upon and we embrace that aspect of our business.  If you can dream it, we can build it!
