Gibraltar Industries, Inc. has acquired assets of Steel City Corp. as part of its long-term strategy to create new alliances focused on increased product and market penetration.

"This acquisition complements our market-leading postal products position, while also expanding our product development and marketing competencies in the growing storage market," said Cliff A. Tucker, Group President.

The company says the acquired assets, which have annual sales of approximately $10 million, will not affect the remaining operations of Steel City. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The acquisition of Steel City follows Gibraltar's June 8 announcement that it had acquired Home Impressions Inc., a supplier of storage components based in Hickory, N.C.
