TAMLYN® is celebrating over 50 years of excellence in the building supply industry! In May 1971 Ron Tamlyn, Sr. and his wife Jean borrowed $800 and began the company in a small shack in the back yard of their modest home in Bellaire, Texas. Ron Tamlyn, Sr. was the company’s president from 1971 until his son, Tom Tamlyn, took the reins as president in 1990. TAMLYN has become a multi-million dollar, international business with a full product line to match. Tom Tamlyn retired in late 2022 and Miguel Gonzales now serves as CEO and President. TAMLYN remains family-owned and operated to this day. Our history is one of quality, innovation, and proven performance.
TAMLYN manufactures XtremeTrim® for fiber cement and XtremeInterior® for drywall and panel applications. These extensive lines of extruded aluminum trim are typically used by architects to add clean details to a project’s interior and exterior. For exteriors, especially for multifamily residential projects such as large apartment buildings or condominiums, and can help provide aesthetic variety for exterior panels, facades, and rainscreens. Roofing products and structural metal products ensure stronger homes and buildings that will hold together under high wind and seismic forces.
We manufacture joist and truss hangers, brick ties, hurricane clips, straps, and hold downs, as well as special and custom welded hangers. TAMLYN structural products are ICC-listed and Florida Building Code-approved. We also make G-185triple zinc connectors for use with the ACQ treated wood products. As the building industry has advanced and enclosures have become more efficient and tighter, the ever present problem of moisture continues to plague projects. The infiltration of moisture can lead to structural deterioration, shorten the life of exterior claddings and paints, while also fostering mold and rot which will harm the structure and pose health hazards.
Tamlyn has worked with leading building science innovators to become a leader in providing multiple systems to facilitate proper water management. These systems include TamlynWrap® Drainable Wrap, ProSelect™ Commercial Wrap and accessories as well as the Tamlyn vented rainscreen systems.
TAMLYN is dedicated to providing quality products, competitive prices, and excellent customer service.
