CLEVELAND - March 21, 2017 - PRLog -- www.mbma.com: The membership ranks of the Metal Building Manufacturers Association (http://www.mbma.com/) (MBMA) are already showing strong growth this year with the recent addition of four new members. Joining MBMA are Kingspan Insulated Panels Inc.

(https://www.sukup.com/) as a Building Systems member.

The MBMA is comprised of metal building system manufacturers and their suppliers who fabricate or manufacture materials for its member companies, and also architecture and engineering firms and service providers. Members of all classes are industry advocates who promote metal as the preferred building solution for low-rise, non-residential construction projects.

"Metal building systems are the premier building solution in terms of performance, aesthetics, sustainability and speed-to-market. MBMA member firms are instrumental in increasing the prominence and usage of these systems in the low-rise commercial construction market," says MBMA Associate General Manager Dan Walker, PE.

MBMA members interact with industry professionals and key decision-makers through MBMA conferences, meetings, webinars and special projects. They also provide service to the industry through committee involvement which leads to industry improvements and new research. Additional member benefits include exclusive access to industry news updates and statistics, unique continuing education opportunities, and publication discounts.

MBMA Chair Brad Curtis adds, "Many professional leaders have risen to the top of their field due to their involvement in MBMA. Our organization offers many opportunities to stimulate personal growth. It is a privilege to also help our member companies build and achieve their leadership goals."
