Moorestown, NJ (April 30, 2007) – New Jersey-based US Components LLC, a major supplier of high-quality truss and wall panels to professional builders and contractors across the East Coast, announced today that it has purchased the assets of Casmin, Inc., a roof and floor truss manufacturer located in central Florida. US Components is a division of ProBuild Holdings, the nation's largest supplier of building materials to the professional contractor. Terms of the sale have not been disclosed.
Headquartered in Leesburg, Florida with truss plants in Tavares and Lady Lake, Casmin is highly regarded for the quality products and exceptional customer service it provides to builders throughout central Florida.
“Casmin is a fantastic company, and this acquisition allows us to utilize its vast best practices as a platform to further expand component operations in the Florida markets,” stated US Components President Dave Walstad. “It’s a very exciting time for both companies. The addition of Casmin marks the entrance of US Components into the Florida market. We look forward to being the supplier of choice to our lumber yard and builder customers in this region.”
Mark Casp, Casmin’s current president, will continue to run the Florida region as regional vice president and will begin taking on other truss business development roles for both startups and truss acquisitions in the Florida market.
“Casmin is about to enter a new era with unbelievable opportunities for our company, and we are very excited for the future,” said Casp. “The alignment with ProBuild and US Components provides us with competitive advantages that will positively impact our ability to grow, and we will certainly look to build upon our existing reputation as a supplier that provides high quality service to which our long-standing customers have become accustomed.”
