Company

Established in 1999, CDS Manufacturing, Inc. (CDS) is a producer of Precast and Prestressed Concrete products. We have two casting yards in Florida. The Gretna Casting Yard is housed in a 30,000-square-foot facility on 55 acres. The Vero Beach Casting Yard is located on 15 acres.

We firmly believe our most important asset is our customer. This belief is reflected in the quality, timeliness, and flexibility of the products and services we offer. Specifically:

• When applicable, products are pre-assembled BEFORE shipment - this extra effort ensures ease of installation and allows CDS to identify and rectify obstacles installers may otherwise encounter in the field.
• We pride ourselves on consistently meeting or exceeding shipping deadlines - we respect the fact that many of our customers work under intense deadline pressure. In fact, special arrangements have even been made with high volume orders to assure "same-day" shipping.
• One of our strengths is our ability to work with customers and help "get them out of a jam" - in the construction business, logistics are critical, and often deadlines are jeopardized for a multitude of reasons. We have a proven track record of helping customers through difficult situations.
• We are always looking for ways to improve our products and service - we frequently evaluate new and innovative ways to manufacture our products and welcome customer ideas. We are committed to the future and reinvest wisely in capital improvements and employee training.

CDS also offers the following:

• We maintain our own fleet of tractors and trailers. Our drivers are exclusive employees of CDS and are thus able to provide the timely, dependable and professional service our customers deserve.
• We use state-of-the-art vapor curing systems which enables us to cast, strip, and deliver to your job site most any order within a 72-96 hour time period. Furthermore, because our products are vapor cured, we achieve extremely high PSI strengths in a very short period of time.
• All products are cast in compliance with the Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI) standards. Our Gretna casting yard is a PCI certified plant.
• The aesthetics of our products are leaders in the industry. We go to great lengths to minimize "bug holes", form stains, joint lines and other unsightly features.
• In an effort to uniformly match all surface finishes, screeted surfaces have a trowel finish and are subsequently touched-up with a concrete grinder or similar finishing tools.

In summary, CDS produces a high quality line of products at a competitive price and services customers in a friendly, timely and professional manner.
