After its beginning in
1976, Coral Industries quickly claimed a place in the
manufacturing arena of shower enclosures. Over the decades,
Coral has grown to become the largest independent manufacturer
of quality bath enclosures in a sector that includes almost 150
national and regional competitors. With fewer than 10 employees
in 1976, Coral now employs over 400 workers who produce a
complete line of bath enclosures, from standard bypasses, swing
and pivot door units, to custom designed enclosures, built to
accommodate most arrangements and sizes.
Coral's 210,000 square foot manufacturing facility in
Tuscaloosa, Alabama, is the site of the entire in-house
production process, allowing for maximum control and flexibility
of production. From injection molding of plastic and vinyl
parts, to fabrication of aluminum, to complete door assembly,
each step takes place under rigid quality standards, resulting
in completed products which meet and exceed customers'
expectations.
Coral attributes its growth over the years to an unyeilding
commitment to quality products and dedicated customer service.
"Committed to service that meets your needs. Excelling in
innovations that work for you!" has become a company motto and
philosophy that drives not only the everyday operations, but
also the plans for future growth.
It is from such a philosophy that many branches of Coral have
developed. Early in its history, Coral began its own trucking
division, Central Alabama Transport. Realizing that delivery is
an integral part of meeting customers' needs, Central Alabama
Transport was formed, providing dependable service to customers
on weekly or multi-weekly routes.
In 1989, Coral formed its Glass Division and began producing its
own tempered, custom sized glass. Since that time, the Glass
Division has expanded greatly in size and capabilities.
Currently, in-house fabrication capabilities include custom
shape template digitizing, CNC cutting, straight line and shape
edging, straight line and shape beveling, CNC fabrication, sand
blasting, insulating, tempering and laminating.
Coral's latest endeavor is the development of an Architectural
Division. Architectural products include aluminum and all glass
systems - - entrance doors, storefronts, curtain walls, window
walls and handrail glass. A laminated glass line produces
hurricane safety and security glass for commercial and
residential applications. As with other branches of the company,
Coral's Architectural Division is dedicated to the same high
level of service, commitment to customers' needs, and production
of quality products. |
