Tilt-Up vs. Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings: Which is Best?

Choosing the right structure for your warehouse or distribution center based on size, cost, and speed.

For warehouses over 50,000 sq ft, Concrete Tilt-Up is generally the superior choice for durability, security, and resale value. However, for smaller industrial flex spaces (10k-30k sq ft), Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings (PEMB) offer speed and cost savings.

We help clients weigh the long-term maintenance costs versus upfront capital. Tilt-up holds value better and is more resistant to forklift damage, but PEMB gets you to revenue faster. The right choice depends on your specific exit strategy.
