Illinois’s Premier Supplier of Metal & Aluminum Composite Material Panels

The Metal Specialty Systems team excels in fabricating MCM and ACM panels for unique and challenging projects throughout Illinois and beyond. We have extensive experience throughout the state and have worked on such notable projects as the the Manufacturing Technology & Engineering Center (MTEC) at the Richard J. Daley College revitalization project in Chicago, the Schaumburg Hotel and Convention Center, and the Skokie Hospital.

Our expertise lies in engineering solutions for intricate metal wall panel details and systems. Whether the project is small or large, we are equipped to manage it. We start by assisting architects in developing design solutions and then work with contractors to draft competitive proposals that align with the project’s budget. We fabricate the systems to exact dimensions using CNC equipment. Finally, we ensure the project’s scheduling needs are met, completing the on-time installation of the exterior building envelope.
