For 3 generations, SchabelTech has relentlessly focused on people - our team, our customers and our partners. We are constantly working to proactively provide or engineer products that are better, less expensive or more easily procured for our customers. We love it when our customers ask us what’s new or come to us for help on a specific project. To answer to the age-old question of “where do I buy roofing granules?” SchabelTech stays ahead of the curve on roofing granule developments, supply chain optimization opportunities and industry news to provide you nothing short of the best aggregate experience.

SchabelTech’s sales approach is unique. Instead of “selling” our customers, we give customers options to make the best decision for their business. As your supplier of granules and gravel, we work to offer you options and the information needed to make the right purchasing decision for the job at hand. We focus on which product(s) will provide your end customers either better reliability, timeliness, performance and/or pricing.

As one of the industry’s pioneers in Just-In-Time inventory, SchabelTech specializes in order patterns and staying ahead of customers’ project deadlines. We enjoy cultivating relationships with our distribution and supply chain partners and we act as many of our customers’ logistics department. We also know that not all jobs adhere to the best laid plans, do to weather, resource availability and other factors outside of your control. So to help mitigate last-minute jobs and rush orders, we invest in warehousing capabilities to best accommodate our customers’ needs.

Ease of ordering and the reliability of order fulfillment is one of SchabelTech’s greatest strengths. Our customers need dependability and efficiency. We know that our customers can’t do their best work if a critical component to complete the job is missing. We routinely evaluate every aspect of our order fulfillment process for continuous improvement opportunities. We work very hard behind the scenes so you don’t have to.
