LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill. - Indalex Inc. has been awarded a contract by Permasteelisa North America to supply painted extruded aluminum components that will be used in curtain wall to clad twin hotel towers in Revel Entertainment's new resort in Atlantic City, N.J. <br /> <br /> The Indalex contract, valued at more than $8 million, is the company's largest order for powder coated aluminum extrusions being used in monumental construction. Indalex will finish the exterior of the extruded aluminum in silver liquid fluoropolymer paint. Silver Indurall powder coat was selected for the interior extrusion finish. The extrusions will be manufactured and painted at the Indalex facility in Gainesville. <br /> <br /> The Revel resort is estimated to be a $2.5 billion project that will include the two hotel towers with approximately 2,000 rooms each, a casino covering more than 168,000 sq. ft., a 5,000-seat event center, a 600-seat theater and other attractions. <br /> <br /> Permasteelisa North America, part of the global Permasteelisa Group, will fabricate the curtain wall at its plants in Florida and Connecticut. Indalex will begin delivery of extruded aluminum components for Tower I to Permasteelisa in early summer this year. Extrusions for Tower II are slated for delivery beginning in late summer. <br /> <br /> "We are delighted with the opportunity to participate with a world leader such as Permasteelisa on this major Atlantic City entertainment project. The Revel resort will not only be a major new attraction for Atlantic City, but also a wonderful showcase for the wide range of extrusion, fabrication and finishing capabilities we offer to the commercial and architectural building and construction market," said Tim Stubbs, President and Chief Executive Officer of Indalex Holdings Finance Inc.
