The Future of Metal Construction Shines at MCA’s Summer Meeting
CHICAGO, IL, June 28, 2018 – The Metal Construction Association (MCA) held its annual Summer Meeting on June 19-20 at the Hilton Rosemont/O’Hare in Rosemont, Illinois, where MCA’s councils and committees convened to continue work on important topics that directly affect the future of metal construction.
One of the meeting’s highlights was the 2018 MCA Annual Market Study presented by Randy Giggard of FMI Corporation. This new report analyzes the position of metal roofing and wall products across the residential, agricultural, commercial, industrial and institutional sectors. All MCA members have access to the full 2018 Annual Market Study.
“The metals industry is continuing to gain market share in both roof and wall products across all markets sectors examined,” said key note speaker Randy Giggard, manager of FMI’s Market Information Group. “Metal construction spending is projected to reach $2.8 billion and $1.8 billion for roof and wall products respectively by 2021.”
