Industries Served – Manufacturing / Warehousing
Manufacturing and warehousing buildings are another specialty of All-Tex. These buildings can be similar to aircraft hangers in that they typically utilize an iron frame and insulated metal panels. But they are usually not as tall as aircraft hangers, so they have their own set of unique characteristics when it comes to storm damage.
Because they are usually only a story or two in height, a manufacturing plant or warehouse is a little more susceptible to the pressure damage caused once the building skin is compromised – in short, there is less room for air to go. So after a storm, panels must be checked to make sure seals have not broken. The roof needs inspection from hail damage, and the various types of “hidden damage” must be accounted for.
In addition, manufacturing plants and warehouses often have substantial (and complex) heating / cooling and electrical systems, which require a trained eye to assess damage properly. Not to mention various outbuildings and other attached structures that can be especially vulnerable to high winds and related damage.
Speed counts
One additional aspect of manufacturing and warehouse storm damage that bears mentioning is recovery time. In simple terms, most companies cannot afford to have the manufacturing/shipping process stop for any great length of time. So it’s imperative to have your plant or warehouse rebuilt / repaired in a timeframe that impacts your bottom line as lightly as possible. And that’s exactly why you should call All-Tex.
