“Gaining Loyalty in any organization requires experience and depth of services. Tubelite offers those attributes by providing well-trained employees with a caring attitude. Order entry is where that is proven time and time again. Their attention to detail and focus on getting things right equates to fewer mistakes and happier customers. Logistics does a great job at getting product out the door. Tubelite sets a steady course, and has proven over the decades that the original goals set by the developer are still alive and well, and will be well into the future.”

John Verduin –

“For over 15 years Tubelite has been our go to supplier for storefront and curtainwall materials. We have really enjoyed working with them and watching their growth into an industry leading supplier. Throughout their growth they have never sacrificed their commitment to the most important aspect of business, customer service. Their product growth and quality have been outstanding, but they have always maintained a level of customer service that outperforms any other vendor we’ve worked with. From order entry through engineering, if there is ever a problem, it is met with the customer’s needs first and handled quickly and professionally. There is no doubt that our partnership has been a huge factor in our ability to be successful. We look forward to continuing this partnership with a world class company.”

“I chose Tubelite simply because the product is so much more user friendly. As a person who has worked in field installation and fabrication, as shop foreman and in project management, Tubelite sets the bar in ease-of-doing-business. The parts and pieces of Tubelite are interchangeable between systems, which keeps shop supplies to a minimum, along with simplicity of optimization. I enjoy using the EZ-Estimate sheet as it can price out a nice sized job in a matter of minutes with a simple take-off. The price book is easy to navigate as well. I also enjoy the fact that during the shop drawing phase, I can simply click on the DXF file and download multiple details simultaneously.

Thanks to the Tubelite staff for always being professional and helpful.”

Ben Pitz – Estimating / Project Manager – Hagen Glass Co

“We have decided to swap the majority of our orders of storefront, doors, and curtain wall to Tubelite. Tubelite has consistent quality with their products, not to mention the reliability in quality, deliveries, pricing, etc. Their customer service is second to none and whenever we had had questions or issues, Tubelite’s staff does not hesitate to do what it takes to make things right.”

Aaron Moody – President, Skyline Glass, Inc.

“I have chosen to incorporate Tubelite materials in our training program for a few reasons. One, most of the apprentices we train have installed or worked with a Tubelite system of some kind with the contractors they work for. So training with what they are using in the field just makes sense. Two, Tubelite material is readily available and it is easy to navigate the customer portal to put together an order. Three Tubelite’s systems are so versatile we can really accomplish a lot of training with minimal setup and breakdown. Plus Tubelite is easy to work with and looks and performs very well.”

Richard Braze – Instructor, Glaziers Union Local #27 Apprenticeship

“I’ve been in the industry for over 27 years and this is the first time I’ve seen a rollout for a new product this complete. Insightful presentation and very refreshing. Nice job!”

Kent Baumann – Tubelite Inc.

“We carried this vision into the design with such areas as the executive board room featuring floor-to-ceiling curtainwall and the ultra-clear glass tower observation floor. These two areas invoke the sense of expanse and are where some of the most remarkable views in all of the Red River Valley can be witnessed.”

“Managing solar heat gain was a key performance requirement due to the design intent for the 127-foot glass tower. The Tubelite system provided this performance requirement, while allowing ultra-clear glazing to be utilized.”

“Brin Contract Glazing was efficient at installing the Tubelite system in unfavorable conditions and allowing the overall project to be completed on schedule. The final product surpassed the client’s needs and provides an aesthetically unique statement for the University of North Dakota.”

“Very often you hear from customers when there’s something wrong, and not often enough when you get it right. Here’s a short story I want to share with you, and I hope you’ll share it with the appropriate people at Tubelite.

Storefront supplier comes into our shop the other day, and asks me bluntly why we don’t order from them, given they’ve provided more competitive pricing recently. I told him that a few weeks ago I placed an order with Tubelite, a portion of which was to be shipped off for bending. I failed to enter that on my PO but the people in customer service caught it, called me right away, and fixed it for me. Another time I ordered curtain wall, something I’m not that good at. There were some crucial components that I didn’t have on my PO. Again, Tubelite’s customer service called me and brought it to my attention, once again fixing me and saving me time that could have been lost had I not learned this until fabrication time. I further explained to this supplier that this was not uncommon practice, that Tubelite paid attention to our orders, and didn’t just robotically plug them in, that they OFTEN caught our discrepancies and righted them for us. And that this was true of all of Tubelite’s departments, not just customer service. I asked him if he thought he could provide service like THAT. He said “No, no I can’t.”

I mention this to you now because recently customer service lost an order that I placed a few weeks ago, and now I’m in hot water with the GC. In my six years at E-Z Glass, this is the first time this has ever happened to me with Tubelite. Don’t get me wrong, in the moment I was rather upset. But looking at the big picture, Tubelite has provided all of us here with impeccable service and quality product consistently. And we appreciate you/them.

Thanks for everything. You have our continued confidence and loyalty.”

Stacy Gonzalez –

“Before I became the Vice-President of the Commercial Division at Genesis Glass & Mirror, I was a Glazier for 30 years. in the Nashville area. Through my field experience, I came to know Tubelite for their quality and consistency. Since then I have also come to appreciate the reliability and the most excellent customer service in the industry. Any problems that we have had, whether it’s a mistake that we made in placing the order, or the rare mistake that Tubelite might make, it is always promptly addressed. I have never done business with a more competent and efficient group. I am very grateful to our sales representative for taking such great care of us and I would like to thank everyone in Walker, MI for their work ethic and dedication to Customer Service. Without Tubelite, we would only be a run-of-the-mill glazing contractor, but with the excellent products and service that we enjoy as a Tubelite customer, we are able to outshine the competition.”

“I choose Tubelite because they have the best customer service in the industry. The sales rep. is the most knowledge rep I have the pleasure to work with.

When I first started in the industry our rep helped me enormously. He took several days out of his schedule to come into my office and help train me on Tubelite products. He taught me industry standards and the key things to look out for when installing Tubelite Storefront and Curtain Wall. The rest of the staff at Tubelite is very helpful as well and I always feel better when I can use Tubelite on a project.”

Jeff Law –

“I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate Engineering’s help at UNG job, they have been a true life saver for us dealing with our testing issues on this project. Engineering not only came out to assess what we needed to do to pass the test, they actually jumped in with both feet and helped us correct vinyl and several other items.
I can honestly say that I have never had a vendor of any kind take such a vested interest in our company in my 26 years of business.

Thanks again for connecting us with Engineering during our time of need, I look forward to bringing Engineering back to do some additional training for our team.”
