Over sixty years ago, Stabilit America started on a mission to transform the building materials industry through the innovative use of fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP). Over the decades, this mission has guided us from a humble beginning to becoming a global leader in composite solutions. With each new product and innovative feature, we have paved the way for transportation, commercial, and industrial design solutions. Learn more about Stabilit America by following how we came to where we are now.
1959: The Foundation
Our journey first began when Stabilit America was established with a vision to innovate within the plastic panel and sheet sector. From that point, we quickly distinguished ourselves by mastering the production of fiberglass-reinforced plastic sheets, laying the groundwork for all of our future advancements. This early focus on specialized production allowed us to lay a solid foundation in material technology, influencing how structures and spaces are designed and built today.
1993: Expansion into Monterrey
An extremely important moment in Stabilit America’s history was when we opened a new production plant in Monterrey, Mexico. This expansion increased our overall manufacturing capabilities and marked the beginning of our presence in the international market. The Monterrey plant scaled our operations to astounding new levels and also brought us closer to key markets. As a result, this allowed for faster delivery and better customer service.
1997–2001: Strategic Acquisitions
The late 90s and early 2000s were a period of rapid growth for Stabilit America. This period in our history was marked by key acquisitions, including Glasteel in Tennessee, USA (1997) and the subsequent integration of Resolite and Graham in California, USA (2001). These acquisitions helped expand our product range and their technological edge in the industry. We carefully selected each and every acquisition to make sure it would complement our existing capabilities and broaden our reach across various sectors, allowing us to continue to lead in innovation and service.
2000: Establishing Stabilit Europe
In a move to cement our global presence, Stabilit America set up Stabilit Europe in Barcelona, Spain. This marked a huge step in our strategy to serve the European market directly, enhancing their global distribution channels. By establishing a foothold in Europe, we have been able to expand our market reach while enriching our understanding of diverse architectural needs and preferences. As we continue to grow globally, we remain dedicated to supporting your architectural ambitions with globally recognized and trusted building solutions.
2016: Technological Advancements in Monterrey
The introduction of a discontinuous production line in Monterrey in 2016 exemplified Stabilit America’s commitment to technological innovation. This advancement allowed for improved production efficiency and product quality, meeting the increasing demands of modern construction projects. This innovative approach streamlined our manufacturing processes and helped us make sure we could always provide our customers like you with high-quality materials tailored to meet specific project requirements. As we continue to embrace cutting-edge technologies, we’re ready to support your construction ambitions with materials that set industry standards for excellence and reliability.
2017: Global Expansion Continues
The acquisition of Koscon in Switzerland, later renamed Stabilit Suisse, further demonstrated Stabilit America’s commitment to global expansion. This strategic move bolstered our European market presence and brought new technologies into our manufacturing processes. By integrating these advanced technologies, we have enhanced our capability to offer innovative and sustainable building solutions that address your unique challenges. This expansion also reflects our ongoing effort to bring you globally competitive products and services, ensuring that your projects benefit from the latest advancements in building material technology.
