Paulsboro, NJ, October 04, 2023

McGrory Glass, one of the largest family-owned architectural and life-safety glass companies in North America, announces the appointment of Tim Matthews to President.

“We are excited that Tim has accepted a new role at McGrory, and will help us continue to create innovative solutions for the community,” says Chris McGrory, acting CEO and former President of McGrory Glass. “Both our team and our clients will benefit directly from his strong leadership background and unique service-oriented skill set.”

“Tim has been with us since 2002,” says Chief Operations Officer (COO), Gary McGrory. “In the past two decades, our company has grown from our Pennsylvania origins to three facilities spanning over 250,000 square feet of production space.”

The family-owned and operated glass company recently opened a dedicated 76,000-square-foot facility to fabricate fire-rated and security glass, glazing, and framing systems for projects across North America.

“We have partnered with global leaders in fire-rated, and expanded our in-house team to include key veterans in both fire-rated and security glazing,” adds Gary McGrory. “Our 150+ person team has the expertise and agility to quickly bring new products to market and pivot based on our customers’ needs. Tim has been crucial to that evolution.”

“Our company’s strength has always been in our people,” says Tim Matthews, President. “The willingness to embrace individuality within a robust team philosophy is at the heart of our family-based culture. I am honored to stand with the McGrory siblings, and humbled by the loyalty of both our architectural/glazing clients and our partner suppliers – AGC, Corning, Forster, SCHOTT, and Madras®.”

Together, McGrory’s client management team looks forward to providing even more custom glazing and assembly solutions for a larger number of projects.

“Tim has led our seasoned sales force in working with many of our clients for years,” says Chris McGrory. “Life-safety solutions in architecture require mutual trust and long-term relationships, and as a family business, that’s what we’re about first and foremost.”
