If you’re in the metal roofing industry—or considering starting your own business—looking for high-quality rollforming machinery can feel overwhelming. Finding equipment that’s guaranteed to last, plus providing industry-leading results is the goal, right? But where do you look for that ideal?
Founded out of 10+ years of experience in metal roofing, Formwright began in 2019 with a singular idea – to provide a solution that combines high-quality rollforming machines and enclosed trailers tailored to each customer’s needs.
Industry-Leading Machinery
Not all rollforming machinery is created equal. That’s why Formwright only supplies industry-leading rollforming machinery built by New Tech Machinery (NTM). Versatility, durability, and easy maintenance are just a few qualities of NTM. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, NTM rollforming machines are straightforward to use with the “easiest tooling to change out”, according to Formwright salesman Levi Stoltzfus.
With countless configurations for roofing panels and long-lasting results, you can’t go wrong when you choose New Tech Machinery enclosed in a custom Formwright trailer.
Customized Enclosed Trailers
When Formwright began, there was a demand for high-quality rollforming machinery but a lack of proper trailers to transport this high-dollar equipment. Instead of settling for transporting machinery through the rain, snow, and dust that the Midwest climate brings, Formwright co-owner Larry Schlabach used his existing trailer designs that he was using in his metal roofing install business, which was originally designed by Matt Borkholder in Nappanee, Indiana, to bring an enclosed trailer designed specifically for NTM machines to the market.
The best part about these enclosed trailers? Constant protection for the machinery inside plus limitless customization. In Levi’s words, “We have a standard trailer model—18’ box trailer with machine and control panel that’s easy to use…[but] very rarely are there two trailers the same”. Custom options include a pegboard and bin system for organization and a 3-coil rack that mounts above the rollforming machine. Formwright trailers are also designed to reduce the hassle of moving equipment in and out—with or without a forklift.
Whether you’re looking for a basic trailer model, or something suited specifically for your line of metal roofing, Formwright has the equipment, trailer, and accessories for you.
