Said Matt Westerfield, Director of Sales Operations for Calbrite, “The Louisiana and southern Mississippi markets represent tremendous opportunities for us. These areas are important due to their petrochemical markets, the marine industry, food processing and much more. Additionally, in talking with SYN-TECH, there is continued rebuilding of the area caused by the devastation of Katrina. SYN-TECH is well regarded in the marketplace by distributors, contractors and engineers. We look forward to working with Craig and his team to continue to serve the needs of the market.”
Founded over 30 years, SYN-TECH is one of the leading manufacturer representatives in the Louisiana marketplace. Craig Strickland, its president, acquired the firm in 2002. The organization strives to synergistically support its manufacturer partners, distribution, contractors and engineers to deliver the right solution for the application. According to Craig Strickland, President of SYN-TECH, “Calbrite is a perfect fit for us. We believe in having lines that solve customer issues. Stainless steel is an application that can help our customers address specific issues related to corrosive applications and for harsh environments. With the continued growth of the petrochem market throughout the territory as well as the continued rebuilding, the non-corrosive, harsh environment and durability attributes of stainless steel represent considerable opportunity. We look forward to representing Calbrite in our market.”
