Dietrich Metal Framing, a Worthington Industries company and ClarkWestern Building Systems, have announced the new ProSTUD™ Drywall Framing System to meet the needs of today's steel framing applications.
The patent pending ProSTUD Drywall Framing System combines innovative design with high strength steel to set a new industry benchmark for high performance drywall framing. The components in the system are lightweight and feature a number of technological advances to enhance stiffness. ProSTUD has also been extensively field tested for quality and ease of installation.
Mr John Roberts president of Dietrich Metal Framing said that "The performance benefits of the ProSTUD system are truly unmatched in the market today. Not only is ProSTUD easy to handle and install, it is a more efficient alternative to conventional framing as it requires less steel, which benefits contractors, architects and building owners."
Mr Bill Courtney president & CEO of ClarkWestern Building Systems said that "ProSTUD is an industry changing product designed with the contractor in mind. Through creative efforts like this, we will continue to raise the bar in innovation to provide our customers with the most efficient and cost effective steel framing products."
While Dietrich Metal Framing and ClarkWestern Building Systems are co developing the ProSTUD Drywall Framing System, they will be independently selling ProSTUD products. The first manufacturing facility conversions for ProSTUD Drywall Framing System will take place in the fourth quarter of 2009.
