Paul Byrne, Structural's retiring founder, stated "I am thrilled that Structural is becoming part of the Beacon family. I have known Beacon and its leadership team for many years and they share Structural's belief that success comes from hard work and a full commitment to your customers and employees. Aligning with Beacon presented the best opportunity for Structural to continue its excellent history of customer service, expand its product offering and allow for continued profitable growth. Beacon also presents a great opportunity for our dedicated employees and their families to share in Beacon's success as a large and fast-growing public company. I am very excited about Structural's future with Beacon."
