This year, the Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) created a new safety award category to honor Associate Member companies that demonstrate exceptional performance in maintaining workplace safety. The 2016 MBMA Safety Awards were presented at the MBMA Spring Meeting held May 18-19, 2017 in New Orleans, La.

“All injuries and work-related illnesses are preventable. We feel it is important to bring attention to those companies that promote workplace safety cultures,” says Dan Walker, PE, associate general manager of MBMA. “Our members are focused on changing each individual’s perspective to protect themselves and others on the job. MBMA is very pleased to recognize safety best practices through these awards.” The MBMA Associate Member Safety Award was presented to the plants that achieved zero recordable cases for the 12-month period, which is a significant accomplishment.

MBMA Associate Membership is available for companies that supply raw materials, products or services to metal building systems manufacturers.

D.I. Roof Seamers, Corinth, Miss.

Konecranes, Houston

Konecranes, Watertown, Wisconsin
