Prefabricated Steel Airplane Hangar in Galliano, Louisiana

Sunward Steel Buildings, Inc., manufactured and provided this pre-engineered steel building for a customer in Galliano, Louisiana, in 2003.

The building functions as an airplane hangar on the grounds of the South Lafourche Airport, which is part of the larger Greater Lafourche Port Commission. The GLPC plays a critical role in regional trade and commerce, and it helps facilitate the economic growth of the communities it serves.

The airport has a 6,500-foot runway that can accommodate aircraft ranging from small, private planes to large commercial jets, and it also boasts another 1,200 acres of industrial park property that offers plenty of space for future development.
