P1 Group Fabrication Creates Maximum Efficiency
Make it and take it! Efficiency is the name of the game, and that’s why P1 Group invests in four fabrication shops at our 220,000 sq ft warehouse space in Lawrence, KS. Fabrication gives P1 Group yet another edge in our diversified capabilities.
“The fabrication shop plays an integral role in the efficiency of certain jobs,” Vice President Paul Smith said. “Fabricating in our own controlled environment reduces labor cost, decreases installation time and ensures the highest level of quality assurance/quality control.”
Bottom line? Because of the fabrication shop, P1 Group can build it faster and customers get quality-ensured products at a lower price.
Also housed within the Lawrence warehouse space is a separate tool shop that serves all of P1 Group’s fabrication and field work.
