What U S Aluminum Inc does

U S Aluminum Inc is a privately held US manufacturer of rain gutter accessories and leaf protection products, founded in 1980 and headquartered in Haskell, New Jersey. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes a comprehensive catalog of gutter system components including hangers (Elite, Heavy Duty, Supreme, Speed Screw, Ultra Maxx, Half Round, T-Strap variants), gutter protection systems (Hydro Flo stainless mesh, Shur Flo perforated aluminum, Pro Flo, Stealth Gutter Defense polypropylene, Leaf Shelter, Gutter Shelter, Ultra Flo), fasteners (zip screws, hex head screws, pop rivets), outlets, and a complete copper product line. Underlying technology centers on material selection and installation-efficiency engineering, using 3105 alloy aluminum, #18 stainless steel mesh, UV-stabilized polypropylene, and copper substrates, with proprietary design features such as Kwik Fit modifications and integrated screw hangers that reduce contractor installation time.

The company operates an exclusively B2B go-to-market model. Direct sales are conducted through a restricted online ordering portal accessible only to existing account holders, while new customers and broader market reach are served through a network of wholesale distributors across the United States. Pricing is login-restricted and not publicly disclosed. The customer base is segmented into two groups: gutter installation professionals (primary segment) and wholesale distributors (secondary segment), with horizontal segmentation across both. The company does not serve individual consumers through e-commerce and lacks a public stock listing, venture funding, or disclosed parent company. With 6 employees and a 45+ year operating history, US Aluminum functions as a specialized, owner-operated manufacturer in a niche building-products vertical.
