What it looks like to build for centuries
Century Companies
Century Companies is a fourth-generation family business, established by Henry Bryant in 1917. Unlike many companies focused on quick profits, Century prioritizes people. We believe profits are a by-product of doing right by our customers, vendors and teammates.
We have the competitive advantage of being privately held with an unlimited time horizon. This allows the compounding of small disciplined steps to take full effect. So teammates come to work inspired, feel safe all day and go home to their families fulfilled. And customers get unmatched craftsmanship and responsiveness.

Century Fence
Century Fence installs commercial / industrial applications of fence from high security military bases to your small dumpster enclosure. We are ready to help you with your high-profile job or the fence around your commercial property.

Century Traffic
Century traffic is a full-service traffic control and pavement marking company with expertise in all aspects of pavement marking and traffic control. We have the largest fleet of trucks and the greatest manpower in the Midwest to handle your time-sensitive projects and reduce traffic congestion.

Century Security
Century Security provides reliable security options for commercial efficiency and innovation. From safeguarding physical boundaries to enhancing accessibility to providing gate operators, we modernize your security ecosystem, enabling your team to secure the future.

Century History
Through global and personal ups and downs, our rich history is a testament to what prioritizing vision and values can build for our people and communities.

Century Insights

Bill Walsh’s Darkest Professional Moment Shaped Him
If we didn’t have setbacks and challenges we would not know what we are capable of.

What’s It Like Around Here?
