McElroy Metal provides panels for Texas university facility

Bossier City, La.-based McElroy Metal recently supplied 22-ga. coil for the Clear Lake Recreation and Wellness Center, an 81,000-sq.-ft. facility on the campus of the University of Houston-Clear Lake. MCT Sheet Metal of Katy, Texas, handled the fabrication and installation of metal products on the new center, manufacturing three custom profiles in the Sherwin-Williams Fluropon PVDF custom color Aged Bronze.

“The 22-ga. sheet metal used is a step above the 24-ga. typical standard, which translates to a more robust panel in terms of strength and wind load,” said Patrick Coussens, MCT owner. “That adds longevity to the project.”
