Ramoutarsingh has only the highest praise for those
employees. “Our workers are the backbone of the com-
pany,” he says. “They always amaze me, how they grow
with the company and its needs. They make the best
products with what they are given and have, in two

hardware trade, and can hold their own and defend
their products and standards when called upon. Our
representatives in production, marketing, accounting,
dispatch, and quality control have all shown the flex-

the times.”

portant contributions to the construction industry. The
company has gone from a standard manufacturing op-

the best materials to serve the broadest range of pro-

same materials to small-scale builders as it does to
the largest scaled, internationally-designed, govern-
ment projects.
Some recent projects where Trinrico has supplied ei-
ther rebar processing or fencing include: government
housing, hotels, hospitals and medical facilities, air-
ports and runways, corporate facilities, shopping malls
and retail centers, the Point Fortin power plant, the
