Pgt Innovations Inc's Suppliers Performance

Our primary manufacturing materials include aluminum and vinyl extrusions, glass, ionoplast, and polyvinyl butyral. Although in many instances we have agreements with our suppliers, these agreements are generally terminable by either party on limited notice. While most of our materials are typically available from other sources, we would not be able to quickly transition to alternative sources on short-notice in many instances, due, for example, to the length of time it would take us to complete testing and certifications related to impact-resistance and for the alternative source of supply to create the customized equipment and tooling necessary to provide the materials and components to us. Aluminum and vinyl extrusions accounted for approximately 38% of our material purchases. Sheet glass, which is sourced from two major national suppliers, accounted for approximately 13% of our material purchases. Sheet glass that we purchase comes in various sizes, tints, and thermal properties. From the sheet glass purchased, we produce most of our own laminated glass needs. However, due to some temporary capacity constraints, we purchased some of our laminated glass needs from one major national supplier. This finished laminated glass made up approximately 17% of our material purchases. Polyvinyl butyral and ionoplast, which are both used as inner layer in laminated glass, accounted for approximately 11% of our material purchases.
