Fabrication
TSI specializes in composite aluminum and aluminum plate panel fabrication using state of the art CNC Routers and Computerized Brakes, Shears, and Rolling Equipment. TSI is also a certified paint applicator of PPG Product Megaflon and Coraflon, where all painted products have a baked-on finish, providing a 10 year warranty. TSI also maintains partnerships with Reynobond, Alucobond, Alpolic, Kingspan, Morin, Larson Engineering and others to assist with material and design needs.
Field Installation
TSI’s proficient installers allows us to offer a turn-key, fully coordinated in place panel scope. We believe in a proactive approach to panel installation by involving a field operations manager in the early stages of a project. Working with the operations manager and the project manager, the field operations manager helps develop a plan that encompasses layout, field dimensioning, installation, and project close out. This strategy aims to recognize and address potential issues early on before they become major issues.
