September 16^th, 2019: The inventors of the first collated nail made of wood strengthen their brand identity with a new logo and a modern brand appearance

BECK has changed. From the first collated staple, to the invention of SCRAIL®, the nail and screw combination fastener, or LIGNOLOC®, the first collated nail made of wood – the company from Austria is now more courageous, forward-thinking, visionary, technological and innovative than ever. From now on, this will also be visible to the public through a new umbrella brand and brand design.

The best and brightest new products in the residential and commercial construction and landscaping industries for 2015 have been announced on ProToolReviews.com, and we are proud to say the RoofLoc^® SCRAIL^® Metal Roofing System is included among the winners.

"As manufacturers strive to go the extra mile to add useful and often game-changing innovations to their product offerings, we want to point them out so our Pro readers know who's leading the pack," said Clint DeBoer, executive director of the Pro Tool Innovation Awards. "These manufacturers and companies have truly earned a coveted spot in the toolbox of any tradesman, contractor, or construction professional."

A panel of judges representing tool professionals from across the United States weighed in on entries from top global manufacturers, and the RoofLoc ^® SCRAIL ^® Metal Roofing System was selected as a recipient of this honor in the Roofing Nailer category. Here's what the judges had to say:

"SCRAIL ^® and FASCO ^® teamed up to create yet another innovative system that was a no-brainer for our Roofing Nailer Award. For metal to wood roofing, SCRAIL ^®’s SteelThread fasteners offer 400+ pounds of holding strength installed by pairing them with FASCO ^®’s F58AC RoofLoc 75. Threaded holding power with pneumatic delivery – we love the time savings. Even mistakes are easily fixed with a drill."

FASCO America ^® is proud to be the Master Distributor for products manufactured by The BECK Fastener Group ^®, a leader for generations in pneumatic tool and fastener development.  

The FASCO America and BECK Fastener Group® sales and management teams came together on June 13th – 16th at The Lodge at Whitefish Lake, in Whitefish Montana, for this year’s International Sales Meeting. In addition to the meetings and our awards banquet, this year’s event included whitewater rafting, a hog roast, and the International Corn Hole Tournament, which has now become a highly competitive annual tradition.
