4-Horn Industrial Expands Footprint with New Sulphur, Louisiana, Location
4-Horn Industrial, a leading provider of industrial equipment rentals, sales, and contractor supplies for the petrochemical, refinery, pipeline, and construction industries, has opened its newest branch in Sulphur, La. The facility features a spacious, fully fenced laydown yard, a well-equipped warehouse, and ample office space designed to support the company’s ongoing growth. Strategically positioned nine miles west of downtown Lake Charles, the site provides convenient access to the Gulf Coast’s industrial corridor, enabling faster response times and improved delivery logistics.
With established branches in Beaumont, Houston, and Austin, Texas, the Sulphur location becomes 4-Horn Industrial’s fourth branch and represents a key milestone in the company’s growth along the Gulf Coast. Operations at the new branch will be led by vice president of operations, Lee Smith.
“The expansion into Sulphur reflects the growing demand from our customers and our commitment to being where they need us most,” said Rhett Lasserre, CEO of 4-Horn Industrial. “This new branch allows us to shorten response times, strengthen our fleet availability, and continue delivering the 24/7 support that sets 4-Horn Industrial apart. We’re ready to hit the ground running.”
The Sulphur branch will stock a comprehensive inventory of industrial equipment, including mobile elevating work platforms, compressors, forklifts, compaction equipment, pneumatic tools, welders, light towers, and general contractor supplies. Customers can rely on 4-Horn Industrial for rental, purchase, and service solutions tailored to projects ranging from general construction and municipal infrastructure to pipeline and industrial development.
“We are ready to grow,” said Smith, vice president of operations. “4-Horn Industrial has built a strong reputation in the Beaumont and Golden Triangle markets. Expanding into Sulphur reinforces our regional network and gives customers across Louisiana faster access to the equipment and expertise they need to succeed.”
The Sulphur branch aligns with 4-Horn Industrial’s long-term strategy to expand its footprint across North America with the goal of delivering industry-leading service, reliable equipment, and 24/7/365 support to its customers.
