The Challenge:
The challenges in erecting this warehouse included scheduling, difficult weather conditions and meeting the customer’s specifications.
The Grassmere Solution:
Our direct customer (and the general contractor for the owner) Celotti Building Corporation, had a past association with Butler Manufacturing™. Based on their perception of Butler as a premium product, they selected the Grassmere’s Butler proposal over the competition, despite the fact we were not the lowest price.
Grassmere provided a cost-effective pre-engineered building solution. We were able to self- perform the work through our “sister” erection company, KDM Erectors.
This Butler building solution included Shadowwall™ wall cladding and the MR-24® standing seam roof system.
The Result:
The customer was very pleased with the great job we did erecting the warehouse.
Grassmere was subsequently awarded and has completed the following additional Butler Buildings for Celotti:
- A new, 25,000 square foot office and warehouse facility for KTI in Calgary, Alberta
- An 11,000 square foot plant addition for K Line in Scarborough, Ontario
