Independent Galvanizers Cooperative (also known as the
IGC) was started by four independent Galvanizers in
November of 2005. By the middle of 2006 we had grown to
10 members. Currently we have 14 members. Membership in IGC is by invitation only.
We exist
to assist the individually owned galvanizing business. That is why the requirements for membership are that all
member companies must be:
- Independently owned (not publicly held)
- North American owned
The cooperative model
is used in many industries to counter industry
changes such as consolidation and foreign incursion
into the U.S. marketplace, both of which exist in
the After Fabrication Galvanizing industry today. We believe that by working together through the IGC, the
Independent Galvanizers can be stronger and can
accomplish more than working alone.
