I drive by a HUGE panduit building each day on my way to the train station and never actually knew what they do. I was told they are on a government contract...the building looks like its under some TIGHT security. What kinda company are they? Good products?

They are probably the largest manufacturer of cable ties. I've used many of their products. We call the Pandon'tduit.

We are the largest for cable ties and anything for networking. How have you used them since Panduit refuses to sell to the general public?

The plant I work in is the central warehouse like waggy said. We take in product from the other nine divisions as well as our overseas manufactors and ship it out to customers and our overseas warehouses.
