ReFrame™ by Butler Manufacturing

At Cook & Krupa, we’re always looking ahead — embracing solutions that drive smarter, faster, and more sustainable building. That’s why we’re excited about Butler Manufacturing’s ReFrame™ Stud Wall System, an innovative approach that’s transforming how commercial structures go up.

ReFrame™ is a pre-engineered wall system that arrives on-site pre-cut, pre-punched, and clearly labeled for streamlined installation. This approach significantly reduces labor time and virtually eliminates material waste. The system is designed to support a wide variety of exterior finishes such as EIFS, stucco, brick veneer, and horizontal metal, while also allowing for seamless interior drywall installation.
