What Makes Us Different
Key considerations when choosing your specialty metals partner.
Our leverage
AIW is the established leader for complex specialty metal manufacturing and installation services in its core market. AIW has leveraged a strong combination of a bundled service package, specialized production know-how, leading technological expertise, entrenched customer relationships and flexible production facilities into a leadership position in specialty metals and structural steel manufacturing. Marketing to owners and general contractors in commercial, government, education and healthcare segments, AIW occupies the #1 market position in all core product lines. As a one-stop shop for specialty metal components, AIW gives customers flexibility as they look to find solutions over the course of projects. On large, complicated assignments, owners and general contractors can work with a partner with multiple capabilities, rather than work with three separate parties for the various metalwork disciplines and spend significant time managing the communications between them. AIW's multi-discipline approach adds value for customers by helping to manage the process of coordinating the metalwork and providing a single point of contact for metal-related issues.
