ABC Supply Interiors, formerly L&W Supply, a nationwide distributor of interior building materials and construction supplies, has acquired the assets of Wallboard Inc., a Butler, Wis.-based distributor of drywall, steel framing, insulation and related building materials.

The acquisition expands ABC Supply Interiors’ presence in the Milwaukee metro area and strengthens its ability to support local contractors and builders.

Founded in 1983, Wallboard, Inc. has been a trusted resource for contractors throughout southeastern Wisconsin, operating from its location at 13111 W. Glendale Ave. The company will continue operating with its experienced team of associates following the acquisition.

“Wallboard, Inc. has earned its respected reputation by consistently taking care of contractors,” said Mark Woodsum, vice president of ABC Supply Interiors’ North Central Region. “That contractor-first mindset fits well with who we are, and we’re excited about what we can do together.”

With the addition of the Butler location, ABC Supply Interiors now operates eight locations in Wisconsin, including two in the Milwaukee metro area.
