Headquartered in Rhode Island, FS Industries is a catalog-based resource for shelving, tool carts, industrial seating, and storage.
FS sells "engineered steel products" to businesses, but they also offer retail sales and they're happy to sell you a single stool or shelf, depending on the product line. We called with a few questions and they were friendly and helpful. There are real people with names on the other end of the line; this isn't an impersonal mega-manufacturer.
FS has a variety of steel shelving and carts that would work well in a kitchen, workroom, or home office. If you're looking for seating, check out their huge selection of restaurant chairs and barstools, task seating, and industrial welded stools.
Furniture is made to withstand a beating, and prices are in-line with other industrial suppliers. Although FS posts their catalog online, you have to call to place an order.

I love to see pictures of people effectively using these TRUE industrial pieces in their homes. I think they can be fabulous, and I'm always looking for ideas!
I bought 2 steel bin shelving units last year after years of indecisiveness over bookshelves. They're a little like these, but there are 3x7 12" square bins:

Pretty cool, though I'm always looking for new ways to bring in the cool industrial furniture into my home :)
