What are L.P. International's core strengths?
LPI is a domestic tube & metal fabricator/job
shop and a direct importer from China, Taiwan,
Europe and Mexico.
How long have you been in business?
LPI was founded in 1929 as a component parts
supplier to the OEM manufacturer. LPI has been
a metal fabricator since the late 1950's and
a direct importer for over 35 years.
What differentiates you from your competitors?
LPI has the unique ability to develop fabricated
components and turn key products both in the
United States and abroad. By so doing LPI can
assist engineers, designers and product development
teams to get from "print to finished product"
while at the same time offering sales and purchasing
teams economies of scale by sourcing through
offshore trading partners.
How does LPI insure the specifications and integrity
of my proprietary product?
The answer is in the definition. Define, define
and define your product. Our efficiency when
kicking off a project is directly proportionate
to the quality and accuracy of the prints and
samples we receive. The integrity of customer
property is our number one priority. The confidentiality
of your product has to be protected. Our experience
teaches us creating faith and trust will ensure
a long lasting business relationship.
How can LPI be competitive Nationally especially
shipping to the East Coast, Mid West and the
South?
When it comes to volume customers the answer
is in the load. We quote full containers delivered
to your doc. If a customer requires domestic
stocking we have the necessary warehouse space
to facilitate backup stock and JIT programs.
Our internal structure provides a total package
of goods and services that creates value across
the board!
How can I be sure once orders are placed they
will be shipped in a timely fashion?
Customer service is among our highest priorities.
We have a double server system in our manufacturing
and office facilities that provides access to
"real time information" on goods in
process. Our import and customer service team
are in contact with our trading partners and
manufacturing personnel on a daily basis. Our
goal is to provide accurate information as quickly
as possible.
What would key customers' say about your company?
"A key to L.P. International's success
is their willingness to work to customer specification
on an exclusive and proprietary basis as well
as providing cataloged products 'off the shelf'.
