OMG Sells Its Edge Metal Business Unit To Metal-Era

OMG, Inc. announced that it has sold substantially all the assets of its edge metal business, including the facility, intellectual property and inventory to Metal-Era, Inc. of Waukesha, Wisconsin. The deal is effective immediately and terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

OMG acquired the Asheville, N.C.-based edge metal business from the W.P. Hickman Company in 2013. The edge metal product line includes a variety of engineered fascia, coping, water control systems, and related accessories for commercial roofing applications.

“We are pleased to be selling the edge business to Metal-Era. Their singular focus on engineered metal solutions makes them the clear market leader. This is good for OMG, Metal-Era, and professional roofing contractors,” said Hubert McGovern, president, and CEO of OMG. “This divestiture enables us to increase our focus on our core strengths in induction fastening, mechanical fastening, and adhesive, drain and solar technologies. I would like to thank our colleagues from the EdgeSystems Business Unit for their contribution to OMG during the past several years. We wish them all well in the future.”

OMG EdgeSystems operated as a business unit under the company’s OMG Roofing Products Division.
