Sheet Metal Supply Moves To New, Larger Fabricating Facility

With the move, SMS has added new equipment for quicker customer response and increased flexibility.

New equipment purchases for the company included a second ACM routing table and a 21' bi-directional folder.

The new SMS facility in Grayslake, IL is nearly three times the size of the old.

Mundelein, IL - Sheet Metal Supply, a leading fabricator and supplier of formed perimeter edge materials and processed coil and flat stock for more than 25 years, has moved its operation into a new and larger facility in Grayslake, IL.

Located in a 30,000 square foot building in Mundelein, IL, for the past eight years, SMS completed the move into a state-of-the-art 80,000 square foot facility at 150 Pine Street in Grayslake on March 23.

“Moving into a new plant is our reaction to industry demand and a growing desire for a wider range of products and materials,” says Ben Kweton, CSI-EP, Vice President of Sheet Metal Supply. “The added space and new equipment allow us to be quicker with our response time and more flexible for our customers.”

The new plant includes a second ACM routing table to increase SMS’s capabilities beyond aluminum composite material (ACM) and into heavier single-skin products, phenolic resin-based and fiber-cement-based façade solutions as well. In addition, SMS purchased a 21-foot bi-directional folder, allowing for the forming of longer parts or multiple 10-foot parts. SMS will also be able to provide more customized solutions in the façade market.
