Email will be up shortly and by tomorrow the basic busines communications should be up and running. Thanks for your patience. Where is the Encinal peninsula? It's nice little spot bordered by Corpus Christi Bay on the north, Oso Bay on the west, the  Laguna Madre on  the east and the historic King Ranch to the south. This is one of the windiest places in South Texas. It is not unusual to find winds between 30-40mph blowing across Oso Bay and the Encinal peninsula. Despite it's wind it's also a popular area for Gulf saltwater fishing

Encinal peninsula (Flour Bluff)  is home to the Corpus Christi Naval Air Station which is responsible for Naval flight training. It is also home to the Corpus Christi Army Depot – the world’s largest military helicopter repair center. Projected Move In Date: June 1, 2009


New address:

9830 South Padre Island Drive
Corpus Christi, TX 78412

It a rugged 12,000 sf building on 2 acres of land with a side loading bay on Greenbay Drive and 60 car parking lot!

Reason for Move:

To facilitate expansion necessary to produce Titan products more efficiently and more quickly. The goal is to substantially shorten lead times in delivering orders.

Potential:

The new location will allow for future potential expansion of up to a 24,000 sf building. Our soon to be former location will serve as a warehouse.

Staff:

Titan is a proud employer of an American workforce with a multi cultural profile. Befitting a company that ships the world over, you will find staff who originally hailed from places such as Japan, Costa Rica, Mexico, the Philippines, the United Kingdom, Thailand and various states within the USA.    

Titan Support Systems is also a proud member of The Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce, The Better Business Bureau and the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce]]> Pete Alaniz on Titan Tue, 26 May 2009 15:16:00 +0000 http://www.titansupport.com/blog/single-view/select_category/1/article/a_message_to_our_customers_and_fellow_lifters/ Dear Lifter,We’ve always considered it an honor to be able to conduct business in a sport that we...
We’ve always considered it an honor to be able to conduct business in a sport that we love. As a customer you deserve not only the best products available but the best service possible.

Innovation and Craftsmanship

Founded in 1981, Titan was built on the principles of innovation and craftsmanship. When graded on these variables, Titan rules the roost. While the others imitate, we originate.

We’re proud of the fact that we deliver innovative, world record setting products of the highest quality. However, we recognize that our weak point has been slow retail delivery times when ordering directly from Titan.

These slow delivery times pertain only when ordering directly from Titan. For quicker delivery go to our website and find a dealer in your area. They are our frontline. They consist of knowledgeable and reputable companies who can not only answer gear and training questions, but who have stock available for immediate shipment.

Commitment

It’s not enough to simply recognize a weak point. There has to be a commitment to address it. That’s why for the last 18 months we have quietly been working on our biggest project yet …a new, larger production facility.

There is one thing we refuse to do to improve delivery times and that’s to compromise on the craftsmanship of our products. Most do not realize that it takes almost 3 times longer to construct a Centurion squat suit than our competitor’s premium suits. That’s because our competitors use a traditional 3 panel suit construction while the Centurion uses our patented 11 panel construction. That’s a big difference.

Action

Based on these guiding principles, there can be only one solution and Titan has acted on it.

• We’ve purchased and remodeled a 12,000 square foot building on a 2 acre property adjacent to a state highway that provides easy access for shipping & freight companies.
• We’ve installed textile machinery to facilitate the handling and processing of a minimum of 7 tons of fabric at any one time and redesigned the factory floor to accommodate at least 50 employees.
• We’ve installed a new high speed computer network linking the production floor and the offices as well as providing external communications.

Quite simply, this is the biggest investment in Titan history. We are committed to continue bringing the lifting world the best gear ever. Now, the focus will be to make retail delivery times commensurate with the quality of our goods. A new era is at hand.
