About Roark
C.F. Roark was founded by Charles Roark (Fred to his friends and family) in 1949. Since then, the company has grown to four facilities with two divisions: Electron Beam Welding and Engineered Fabrication. Roark specializes in fusing and fabricating complex and highly-engineered metals. They work within the military, aerospace, shipbuilding, energy, nuclear science and engineering industries. They are a trusted source for OEM parts.
The company is still owned and operated by the Roark family. Now in their third generation, the company is celebrating 75 years in business in 2024.
