Grand Rapids, MI - January 17, 2023

 

IG Railing is pleased to announce a distribution partnership with Great Lakes Railing and a Sales Representation partnership with The Garham Group. Together, they will distribute, educate, and market IG Railing in Michigan, portions of Indiana, and Ohio.

 

IG Railing is a patented, frameless glass railing system with integrated LED lights featuring 12 LED color options via WIFI or remote control that is truly Bringing Glass to Life. The complete product railing system provides hardware, lighting, and low-iron glass, resulting in an architecturally inspiring railing system of the highest quality and simplest installation method. IG railing has achieved ICC-ES® to AC439 standards.

 

“As a laser-focused distributor of railing products, IG Railing is an exciting opportunity to be a part of that complements our service, existing product offering, and decades of experience in this space”, said Dave DeKorne, Owner of Great Lakes Railing. “The Michigan market has already been seeded with several projects through lumberyards with great contractors that the Garham Group has secured, so we are excited to hit the ground running this year”, concluded Dave.

 

“We met the IG Railing team through a shared connection last building season and saw the opportunity for their product in our markets immediately,” said Joe’l Garcia, Owner of The Garham Group. “Bringing Dave and his team in as our distributor and making the introduction with IG Railing - this is what we do, since 2013. We help bridge and accelerate distributor to manufacturer relationships in the outdoor living, green space, and hardscape industries”, added Garcia.

 

“IG Railing as a product and brand is the result of executing our ownership group vision starting in 2020 to create a category shift to glass railing through LBM dealer & distributor supply chain,” said owner Mike Kunard. “Adding a specialized distributor like Great Lakes Railing, and then adding more feet on the street of the Garham Group, who has already created pull-through contractor value…..we are very confident for 2023 sales growth in Michigan!”, exclaimed Mike Kunard, owner, IG Railing.
