Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings Remain Affordable at AJ Bright Construction
Pre-Engineered Building Construction and Use of American-Made Steel
If you’re a warehouser, farmer, contractor or other commercial business in greater Greenville, SC, pre-engineered metal buildings (PEMBs) can still be built affordably with AJ Bright Construction. At AJ Bright Construction, we believe in supporting our local suppliers, which means we’ve always given quotes to our customers using high-quality products from American-made steel manufacturers.
What does that mean for you as a potential client? You can expect that our PEMB quotes won’t change excessively compared to large builders paying tariffs on steel imports from other countries like China. While American-made steel is still expected to rise by 7% in cost, AJ Bright Construction is committed to curating products from suppliers, so we don’t have to offload the cost of (25%+) tariff imports onto our customers’ estimates.

Why Buy a PEMB?
Pre-engineered metal buildings are widely recognized for their affordability compared to traditional steel buildings, primarily due to their streamlined design and efficient manufacturing process. Unlike conventional steel structures that require individual design and fabrication, PEMBs are engineered in advance and manufactured in sections, which significantly reduces labor and material costs. These buildings also benefit from manufacturing at scale, as components are mass-produced, further driving down the overall expense. The faster construction timeline translates into lower labor costs and earlier operational start dates, saving businesses both time and money.
When considering a structure for warehousing, cost is often a decisive factor, and PEMBs offer a compelling value proposition. Their prefabricated nature ensures that waste is minimized during construction, and fewer man-hours are needed for assembly. Maintenance costs over time also tend to be lower with PEMBs, as they are built with durable, corrosion-resistant materials designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions. This long-term cost-efficiency makes them especially attractive to companies looking to maximize ROI while minimizing upfront capital expenditure.
Beyond affordability, PEMBs offer functional advantages that are suited to warehousing needs. Their clear-span design allows for massive, unobstructed interior spaces, ideal for storing large inventories and accommodating forklifts and other warehouse machinery. The flexible design options also mean that the building can be easily expanded or customized as a business grows.
