5/5
I switched over about a year-and-a-half ago because I was unhappy with the company we were using; they were a little too pushy. We join this company (AWIS) and are very happy with the service. If we have a problem, they help us work through it. I can only say good things about AWI

5/5
We switched because they offer great service, competitive pricing and have a knowledgeable, helpful staff who we thought we could do some good work with. All those things are true, and if we have any questions, they're always here to help us. We really value that.

You've saved us a ton of money. I like (AWIS) because you’ve given us innovative ideas to help with stamping and saved us a ton of money. You’ve brought some creativity by suggesting how to stamp our wood more efficiently and worked with us to develop it.
