TRIM-TEX DRYWALL BOASTS A HALF-CENTURY OF INNOVATIVE CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS, EDUCATION, AND OUTREACH
![Creating A Community](https://magarticles.magzter.com/articles/11795/301136/5baabde4cdf62/Creating-A-Community.jpg)
In 2019, Trim-Tex will celebrate 50 years in the construction materials industry—a cause for celebration for the family-owned business that has developed more than a dozen patents and boasts facilities in Lincolnwood, Illinois and Orange County, California. Just don’t expect them to rest on their laurels as they remain committed to innovation, learning, community, and sustainability.
CONTINUED INNOVATION
Trim-Tex is a solutions-based company that is in constant contact with contractors in the field, a quality that helps push new developments. One such product is Magic Corner which is an expansion bead for any inside corners with movement. Originally developed for houses that could move due to settling, the product has found further use with the advent of tiny homes and prefabricated houses that need to be transported.
Additionally, Trim-Tex has originated the 093X-V, a fire-rated expansion bead that is ready for quick installation without the need for additional backing or flame retardant, and a deflection bead that prevents dry wall from cracking along the ceiling. Seeking answers for their customers’ needs continues to push Trim-Tex to design new products as they move into their next half-century of existence.
INVENTORY AND SUPPLY CHAIN SUCCESS
Keeping 60,000 units on hand for same-day shipping from both facilities is no easy task, but TrimTex has found solutions to maximize their speed to market. Utilizing their ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system Sage, along with a visual inventory system, operators at TrimTex always know where a product is and how to get it.
