WORLD FENCE NEWS • FEBRUARY 2015 • 83 Niles Expanded Metals & Plastics acquires MetalSpand, Inc. NILES, Ohio – Niles Expanded Metals & Plastics has announced its acquisition of a new and second ex- panded metal manufacturing center at MetalSpand in Waurika, Oklahoma. Niles gained operational control of MetalSpand, Inc. on October 27, 2014. This new location will be oper- ating as MetalSpand by Niles. The purchase of MetalSpand al- lows Niles to grow into the central United States and Gulf Coast regions, where MetalSpand has operated since 1970. Bill Phillips, Jr., president of Niles Expanded Metals & Plastics, said, "This is a great fit for Niles, as we have always considered an expansion into these territories that are key to the expanded metal market positioning and distribution." Additional services and products are currently being integrated into MetalSpand by Niles daily operations. For instance, re-tooling is under- way to increase the efficiency and product output of carbon steel ex- panded metals and gratings. Plus, alu- minum and stainless steel expanded metals are now available for immedi- ate shipment. These basic production upgrades allow the company to better serve cus- tomers while offering them a wider range of products. "MetalSpand has a solid customer base and we appreciate their loyalty," said Phillips. "We are counting on the Metal- Spand team of Tina, Johnny and Cliff as we grow to help with all our cus- tomers' expanded needs and more. We will work relentlessly to ensure the success of our newly acquired ex- panded metal manufacturing compa- ny," he said. Niles Fence & Security Products will also come to the Waurika loca- tion, further enhancing the range of products being offered. Niles Fence manufactures and distributes expanded metal fence sys- tems, security cages, security mesh and all the accessories that make them work. Stacey Hoover, general manager at Niles Fence, will utilize her expe- rience and expertise by extending her general manager role to security fenc- ing systems at MetalSpand by Niles, the company said.

At Western Tube & Conduit customer satisfaction and quality are the first order of business. Our Fencepost and Fencerail production is ISO-9001:2008 certified - and our products are manufactured to meet all the applicable state, federal, industrial and regulatory specifications and requirements. While we regularly stock standardized products and sizes, we are happy to provide custom dimensions as well. All our Fence products are galvanized with high purity zinc. We use high frequency welding (ERW) to turn the highest quality strip steel into tubing, and then a continuous hot-galvanizing process to zinc-coat the products smoothly and evenly. A zinc-rich interior organic coating, a chromate conversion coating, and a clear exterior organic coating provide the complete finish package that gives them superior protection against the elements and long life as a result. Gal-Z serves customers looking for shaped Fence tubing as well as corrosion-protected mechanical tubing. It can be purchased in squares and in rectangles, and it provides excellent environmental durability while also fulfilling the need for strength and weldability.
