~ Wholesale Building Material Distributor adds stocking locations of IG Railing® and IG Armor™ ~

 

Batavia, IL, May 29, 2025– Effective immediately, Parksite Inc. will expand its offering of IG Railing®, the #1 brand of frameless glass railing, to its territories in North Carolina. IG Railing is built on a base mount, called a spigot, that houses a Wi-Fi-controlled LED light system and holds 1/2” tempered low-iron glass. By day, IG Railing eliminates sight obstructions associated with traditional post-and-rail systems. By night, the low-iron glass and LED lighting allow illumination to flow through the panels in a vibrant yet tasteful fashion. Glass connector accessories, top rail, and spigots are available in matte black or polished finishes.

“North Carolina is our third expansion with IG Railing in just over a year, as we now stock at all of our East Coast locations and Ohio,” stated Bob Higgins, Senior Vice President of Sales at Parksite. “Strategic efforts have been well executed with IG and by our team building brand awareness, creating demand, and delivering the solutions that IG Railing has to offer. We see a very bright future for this product line at Parksite,” continued Higgins.

“The Parksite team and our sales support partner MSA have shown up at every dealer training, open house, and tradeshow this past year, getting the word out that Frameless glass railing can be easy to buy and easy to install,” said Mike Kunard, co-owner of IG Railing. “This past year, we’ve had the majority of installations be first-time user experiences in Parksite’s territory, and we are happy to say that through representation, training, and product availability, many of these deck builders are converting existing jobs to IG Railing from user experience,” continued Kunard.

Coinciding with the Garner location launch, IG Railing is pleased to announce that IG Armor, the ultimate protection against the elements, is now stocked at all Parksite stocking locations. Known for its industry-leading durability and premium aesthetic, IG Armor provides unmatched protection and peace of mind, even in the harshest climates.

Parksite firmly believes its competitive advantage is directly attributable to its employees. According to CEO, Ron Heitzman, “Every one of our associates is dedicated to contributing to the success of both our customers and our suppliers. The dedication and excitement that is generated when everyone is an owner is extraordinary.”
