HOUSTON, TX, July 12, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Steel building manufacturer Rigid Building Systems, Inc., has launched a new division - Rigid Components. The division, which opened for business July 1, provides one-stop shopping for specialty metal building products.
"In the past," said Steve Olson, vice president of sales and marketing for Rigid Building Systems, Inc, "authorized builders have had difficulty accessing building products that are typically not included in a metal building company's regular inventory. With our new division," he said, "we've solved that problem."
Olson said Rigid Components provides on the spot shopping for steel building accessories such as:
• Metal building insulation
• Overhead doors
• Louvers
• Cupolas
• Roof curbs
The new Rigid Components division is different from Millennium Building Components (one of the Rigid family of companies), said Olson. "Millennium sells metal building components manufactured exclusively by Rigid. Rigid Components sells products that are not part of the company's regular product line."
Olson said metal building erectors will benefit from the new division "because Rigid already has a relationship with them. Builders will have confidence buying specialty steel building products from us because they have worked with Rigid before. They know they can trust our buying experts to locate the best products at the most competitive prices."
Convenience is another benefit, said Olson. "There's no longer a need for steel building erectors to outsource to several vendors. Now, every product is available in one place."
Olson said Gene Turnbull - a steel building industry veteran of more than 20 years - will head up the new division from the company's Denver office.
