WARREN, Mich. - SET Enterprises Inc., a provider of steel processing services with operations in Michigan, Indiana, and Illinois, has announced the opening of two new business ventures: SET Duct Manufacturing Inc. and SET Construction Inc. These two new ventures will be housed at a newly renovated 40,000-square-foot facility in a former renaissance zone in Detroit.
According to the company, SET Duct Manufacturing Inc. combines a seasoned team of individuals with expertise in the HVAC duct industry, state-of-the-art fabricating equipment, and SET’s steel processing expertise to create a dynamic new player in the commercial and industrial HVAC duct market. SET Duct’s capabilities will include the manufacture of commercial-grade spiral, oval, and rectangular duct, and related fittings and components. SET Duct Manufacturing, with support from the Michigan Economic Development Corp. (MEDC) and Detroit Economic Growth Corp.

Sid E. Taylor, chairman/CEO of SET Enterprises Inc., stated, “SET’s expansion into the manufacture of HVAC duct represents a natural leveraging of our core automotive steel processing capabilities and the addition of our construction capabilities will complement this expansion.
