Buildex

Buildex

In 1967, ITW Buildex opened its doors in Elgin, Illinois and began with just four employees. One of Buildex's first triumphs was the development of the first hex head self-drilling fastener for attaching metal sheeting to roof s and sidewalls on commercial buildings. Continued growth prompted the move in 1984 to Buildex's current facility in Itasca, Illinois. Buildex employs over 200 people with facilities in Itasca, Roselle and West Chicago, IL; Sacramento, CA; Allentown, PA; and Houston, TX.
