OMG Inc., Agawam, Mass., announced the acquisition of Itasca, Ill.-based ITW Buildex's Roofing Business Segment, which develops and manufacturers fastening systems for the commercial roofing industry. As a result of the acquisition, OMG now will offer AccuTrac Automated Insulation and Seam Attachment System, Polymer Batten Strip, Eyehook Seam Plate and Reel-Fast Collated Seam Plates.
