Just sending out a quick note about the GatorBar.
The guys love it, they were already saying 40% labor savings on the first day, and by the end of that week they didn’t want to ever see steel on our flat work jobs again. My guys have been working with steel for 15+ years and the acceptance of GatorBar started within minutes, and as we know change comes hard in this industry.
Just landed a 30,000 sq. ft. job with 1 ft. OC #4 bar and the General Contractor signed off on using GatorBar instead. The guys were extra happy!!! as that would have been a back breaking event for sure.
For any company that ties up a lot of bar or a little it’s a NO BRAINER even if steel comes back down in $$$ we won’t go back to steel for our flat work.
Thanks for all your help, and keep cranking out that GatorBar.

Crain's Detroit Business: Neuvokas raises the bar on manufacture of rebar
""I work with a lot of companies in Michigan, and this is one of the few that can be a billion-dollar company," Arcadio Ramirez, technology business consultant for the Michigan Small Business Development Center, speaking about a small company in the Upper Peninsula called Neuvokas Corp.
It's the last place in Michigan you'd expect to find a billion-dollar company, this blue building surrounded by acres of fields and woods outside the small village of Ahmeek in the Keweenaw Peninsula.
