Aubrey Greene and Tom Layfield established Greenfield Metal Products Company in February 1957, in Americus, Georgia. The company manufactured automotive after-market equipment (tire truers and balancers) for Americus Machinery, which is now known as Amermac, Inc. Greenfield Metal Products Company was incorporated in 1959 and moved its manufacturing facility to Ellaville, Georgia in April 1963. In September 1975, Greenfield Metal Products purchased Amermac, Inc., as the sales company for automotive after-market equipment. In 1983, Tom Layfield retired from Greenfield Metal Products. Aubrey Greene remained at the helm of Greenfield Metal Products and Amermac until his death in April 2001.

Greenfield Metal Products is the oldest manufacturer of ventilated wire shelving, having begun fabricating steel wire shelving in 1968. In 1980, Greenfield expanded its operation to include coating capabilities and began to market Greenfield Shelving nationwide. In June 1995, Greenfield purchased the machinery of US Shelving in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and moved all the equipment into a new 33,000 square foot building. A second new building was completed in 1997 to accommodate a second coating oven.

Since relocating to Ellaville in 1963, the facility has grown from the original 12,000 square foot building to the current 96,000 square foot building. Amermac, Inc. sells equipment nationwide and overseas to Europe and the Middle East. Greenfield’s shelving market is based primarily east of the Mississippi, north through Canada and south through the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central America.
