To Our Industry Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of every Peddinghaus employee, we wish to thank those guests who participated in the year’s NASCC Conference in Orlando, FL. This year’s conference was held at the beautiful Gaylord Resort, with it’s 2,200 of structural steel fabricated by FabArc Steel on Peddinghaus equipment. If you could not make it to Orlando this year, we thank you for your continued support of the steel construction industry, and look forward to seeing you in the coming months.

The many industry networking events offered at the NASCC conference – and other venues throughout the year – are the bonds that continue to strengthen our industry. Peddinghaus is pleased to have had the opportunity to bring industry members together to share in the camaraderie and communication exchange. By bringing global colleagues together, Peddinghaus assisted in creating positive educational dialogue to chart the course for the future of our industry.

Thank you to those who visited Peddinghaus at any of our NASCC networking opportunities:
