RE: New Manufacturing Plant


We are pleased and excited to announce that we have undertaken construction of a new manufacturing facility in Council Bluffs. When completed late next year, we will consolidate all our operations in the new plant which will feature a state-of-the-art e-coat finishing system. Our goal as a company is to be a world class manufacturer and to provide you and your customers with the finest products available, competitively priced, and available in the shortest amount of time possible. This new facility will help us accomplish that goal. We sincerely appreciate your support.

Thank you for your business. We hope that we continue to deserve it in the future.



We take pride in our products and in our association with our dedicated customers.
