New App From Petersen Aluminum Launches With Smartphone Giveaway

Elk Grove Village, IL - The comprehensive metal product resource app from Petersen Aluminum Corp. is now available for smartphones. This newest version of the app complements the existing tablet version to provide anytime access to metal product information wherever and whenever building professionals need it. Petersen Aluminum also is giving away a new smartphone to one randomly chosen person who downloads the new smartphone app, to show appreciation for its customers.

The PAC app is loaded with the entire library of PAC metal architectural products and technical information architects and roofing contractors need, such as literature, spec sheets, CAD drawings, testing documents and BIM files. The high-definition app offers clear and simple visual navigation for quick reference, and all documents can be viewed, printed or emailed. App updates will be automatic. The app is ideal for field use because it does not require an internet connection after installation.

Users who download the PAC app on their smartphones will have the option of providing basic contact information and answering a survey question for a chance at being the one person chosen to receive a new smartphone. The deadline to enter the giveaway is Nov. 15, 2014.

The smartphone app is available for free download by searching for PAC-CLAD on iPhones through the iTunes store and on Android-based smartphones through the Play Store. The tablet app has been available for both Apple and Android devices since late 2013.
