EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS KNEW ABOUT

IS IN OUR NEW NAME HBC Barge

We've changed our name, from

Hillman Barge & Construction

Company to HBC Barge, Incor- porated, to better reflect our dedication to the barge industry.

Barge. Because we special- ize in barges, designed and built to customer specifications.

Because barges are the major- ity of our business, by choice.

We're still the same company, in the same place, Brownsville,

Pennsylvania, on the Monon- gahela. With the same philoso- phy of building barges for quality, not quantity.

We're still the same people.

Craftsmen, some of whom have been here over 30 years, taking pride in Puilding the best barge possiPle. And working to find the best way to meet the cus- tomers' demands.

We're still giving our custom- ers exactly what they want in a barge, as part of the design, not as a tacked-on option. Our customers aren't limited to a list of options, we work to meet their requirements, whatever those requirements might Pe.

And we're still building liquid cargo and chemical barges; coal, grain, cement, sand, gravel and general commodity barges; standard, stumbo and jumbo; hopper, tank and deck barges; semi-integrated, dou- ble-square-end and double rake barges; plus, we have the capabilities to provide floats and other marine specialty equipment.

Go beyond options and get what you want
