South Dakota Metal Building Insulation

When it comes to South Dakota, there’s probably one thing that comes to everyone’s minds — Mount Rushmore. This state is so famous for that national monument that it’s nickname is The Mount Rushmore State.

But there’s more to South Dakota than being home to Mount Rushmore. It has the Badlands and the Black Hills, and 90 percent of the state is covered in farmland, prairie and grassland. As a fairly big agriculture state, South Dakota’s livestock and livestock products are important to its economy. Cattle, its top agriculture product, make up 34 percent of the state’s agriculture earnings, and its production of cattle make it the seventh leading state in the United States in cattle production.

And that’s not all. The Mount Rushmore State is also a good business state. CNBC picked South Dakota as the 2013 Top State for Business. One reason it earned the top spot is because it’s a state that doesn’t burden its citizens with lots of taxes. South Dakota has no corporate income tax, personal income tax, personal property tax, inheritance tax or business inventory tax, which helps put and keep more money into the wallets of its citizens and businesses.

In order for South Dakota to stay on top as a leading business and agriculture state, it needs to ensure its workers and their equipment and livestock stay in optimum condition throughout its warm summers and freezing cold winters. Metal buildings are a common solution to withstand weather and save on energy costs, which help keep that money in its citizens’ pockets. But if they’re going to do that, their metal buildings must be properly insulated.

Customer Testimonials

Very happy with my purchase here. I was lost as far as how to insulate my metal building. I almost pulled the trigger on just doing foam boards you buy Home Depot, but found this company through a colleague.

The price for their insulation was about the same as it would have been for the foam boards but the R-value was better and it was all custom-cut for my building.

Installing the batts was a learning process, especially for the roof. You can certainly do it as a one-man band, but it’s going to take some time and little tricks to make it work.

The insulation is very high quality, and I can absolutely tell a difference inside my shop!

I purchased insulation for my Barndominium in Malad ID, about 6 years ago and they provided me with a fantastic product that was made exactly to my specs. Swenson really took care of me. It is a bit of a drive but I was down there again last week #CustomerForLife.
