Cupples Inc.

Great brands never die. One of the truly great brands and storied construction companies of the twentieth century was Cupples, a manufacturer and contractor specializing in building façade products. Cupples led the international curtainwall market in the second half of the twentieth century, both developing this emergent building technology and applying it to a remarkable series of landmark building projects, among them: • Cadets Chapel: US Air Force Academy | Colorado Springs, CO, SOM, 1963 • John Hancock Center | Chicago, SOM, 1969 • Sears Tower | Chicago, SOM, 1973 • World Trade Center Towers | New York, Minoru Yamasaki, 1973 • State of Illinois Center | Chicago, Murphy Jahn, 1985 • Hong Kong Shanghai Bank Headquarters Building | Hong Kong, Foster Architects, 1985 • Puerta de Europa | Madrid, Spain, Philip Johnson & John Burgee, 1996 • National Bank of Dubai | Dubai, UAE, NORR International, 1997 • Torre Mayor | Mexico City, Zeidler Roberts Parnership, 2003 • U.S. Embassy | Beijing, China, SOM, 2006 The current management group is excited to be bringing this revived brand back to dominance in the US marketplace. We recognize a particular niche of opportunity in the existing construction marketplace–the low and mid-rise buildings that dominate many local and regional markets–and this is our focus. Building types comprising this niche range widely from office through institutional to residential applications, and we have experience and expertise with the full spectrum. Cupples is a subsidiary of CH Holdings USA, Inc.
