The Manufacturer
Americana Building Products of Salem, Illinois, has been manufacturing building products for 47 years. Through the years, we have developed a variety of shelter lines built with quality material and structural integrity you can count on.
All-Metal Recycled Shelter Structures
Structural rafters and columns are steel unless otherwise specified. The steel conforms to: ASTM A 36 or the equivalent specifications. All metal components have a baked-on powder coat finish in your choice of color over a factory primer.
Most shelters are available in two styles: The tubular rafters and columns or the C Channel rafters and columns.
Roof decking is high-strength, recycled aluminum with stucco embossed, painted finish. Optional Galvalume steel is also available. These materials are rolled into panels with a water-tight, snap lock connection and a 3 V shape with 2 1/2″ ribs, 8″ on center.
