Thriving by doing the difficult
 and doing it well


L-R: Glenn Parvin, President and Chet Klos, Partner of C.A.S.S. (
Custom Architectural Sheetmetal Specialists, Inc.

C.A.S.S. Sheet Metal Specialists, was incorporated in 1990. Partners Glenn Parvin and Chet Klos wanted to create a company to market and specialize in custom sheet metal work. Today the name C.A.S.S. Sheet Metal is one of the most respected companies doing architectural sheet metal work in the state of Michigan.

"We got started with Berridge because we needed a structural standing seam panel backed by a manufacturer’s watertightness warranty --- the Berridge Total Program gave us the manufacturing control and support we needed."

C.A.S.S.’ reputation for uncompromising quality enabled the company to land very large and prestigious projects for schools, financial institutions and other leading companies in Michigan. Because C.A.S.S. is a company specializing in custom sheet metal fabrication, their alliance with Berridge Manufacturing Company was a key strategy in becoming one of the largest architectural metal roofing companies in the state. In addition to purchasing three Berridge Portable Roll Formers, C.A.S.S. has partnered with Berridge to provide its customers with water tight warranty coverage on its larger projects. "We got started with Berridge because we needed a structural standing seam panel backed by a manufacturer’s watertightness warranty --- the Berridge Total Program gave us the manufacturing control and support we needed."

C.A.S.S. operates its own 10,000 square foot sheet metal shop equipped with two shears, two computer brakes, a press brake, multiple hand brakes, welders and roll formers. The company employs up to thirty union sheet metal journeymen, two estimators/project managers, two administrative employees and the management team of Glenn Parvin and Chet Klos.

C.A.S.S.’ reputation as a leader in custom sheet metal work is evident in over twelve feature articles which have appeared during recent years in construction trade magazines. As Glenn Parvin sums it up: "Thanks to strategic partnerships with companies like Berridge and experienced, dedicated employees, we’ve never had to say we couldn’t do a job."
