Price Decreases from Grimco
Grimco is very excited to announce that as of February 1st, 2022, you will see a number of changes made to our group discounted pricing. This comes in the form of PRICE DECREASES!!! Grimco’s National Accounts team worked diligently to realign pricing on over 200 core items for our network. The majority of the materials in this realignment are staples that most members use regularly.

Here is a brief summary of what product groups were included in these decreases:
- Corrugated Plastic
- Stakes, Frames, Posts
- Aluminum Sheets & Blanks
- Maxmetal
- Briteline Media & Laminates
- Acrylic
- UltraBoard Products
