Eastern Metal Building Products LLC has announced the acquisition of construction products manufacturer Super Stud Building Products.
New England-based stud manufacturer Eastern Metal said the buy includes Super Stud’s affiliates Galaxy Metal Products, DragonBoard USA, and FroMar Structural Wall Panel System.
Further terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Eastern Metal said the brands will continue to operate in present locations with their familiar names, but the overall company will increase product diversification and the area it serves.
Additionally, Eastern Metal said it will serve as the parent entity for all subsidiary companies, with Ryan Filion continuing as CEO of EB Metal US. The existing management teams of all companies will remain in their current roles.
Eastern Metal is the parent company of EB Metal US.
“I am excited to be able to combine our EB family with the experienced, talented, and well-led team at the Super Stud affiliated companies,” Filion said in a statement on Monday.
The company said EB Metal will serve New England and Super Stud will serve the Tri-State and Mid-Atlantic regions, while both will serve the South.
Super Stud has facilities in Edison, N.J., and Hattiesburg, Miss.
