Building Materials Market News & Updates

Thursday, November 10th

Over $13K raised so far for T1D!

November is Diabetes Awareness month and this November we're sponsoring a fundraiser with the JDRF to drive for a cure for Type 1 Diabetes! We're over $13,000 in donations thanks to people like you and we're working toward a $30,000 goal! Each donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar by Hamilton Building Supply. In other words, if you contribute $50, we'll contribute $50. 

Please kindly support our cause through the fundraiser link here.

Also, be sure to save the date for Thursday, December 1st. If you're in the Hamilton, NJ area, join us at Killarney's Publick House as we host a happy hour event to celebrate our fundraiser for Type 1 Diabetes. Our very own Jon Jacob will play with his band from 5:30pm to 8:00pm!

There is no cure for Type 1 Diabetes and those who are diagnosed with the disease rely on regular doses of insulin and constant blood sugar monitoring to keep from getting very sick or dying. Type 1 Diabetes is lifelong and some 1.5 million Americans are living with the disease. Let's help find a cure!

TruStile Pre Finished Interior Doors

In our last Hot Read, we discussed how awesome TruStile MDF doors are, but did you know TruStile also makes a killer pre finished wood interior door? There are endless finish options with TruStile wood doors as they have over a dozen different stain options to be applied on over a dozen different wood species!

The factory finish is primo, it's hand wiped and all of the edges of each door panel are finished before they are built into the door, which eliminates any chance of unfinished exposure when the wood in the door moves.

TruStile has design concepts for every application. Whether you want a basic panel door or something more contemporary, TruStile can deliver. Next Hot Read you'll learn more about TruStile's Exterior doors!
