We Make It Easy For You To Buy
We know buying a commercial shade structure for your space isn't always the easiest process. That's why we belong to various buying procurement affiliations and have also certified our products for use in various cities and states. We partner with NASPO ValuePoint, HGACBuy, Buy Board, and GSA Advantage! so you can say goodbye to the lengthy bidding process. What's more, we are a certified fabricator for the City of Los Angeles (LADBS Certified Fabricator), are a registered fabricator for the City of Houston, and have DSA pre-check approval from the California Division of the State Architect (DSA).
