Wabash National Corp. has announced its DuraPlate Products Group has signed a multi-year agreement with PODS Enterprises to build and service all of PODS’ portable storage containers.

The DuraPlate Products Group, part of Wabash’s NextSteps strategic plan, was launched earlier this year. The agreement is designed to allow PODS to concentrate on growing its business while Wabash will focus on the production and service, the companies said.

“One of the key initiatives of our strategic plan is to diversify and grow our business by leveraging our DuraPlate panel technology into other industry segments,” said Dick Giromini, president and CEO of Wabash National. “Our newly developed partnership with PODS jumpstarts that effort.”
