Every certification below is listed with the body that issued it and the work it applies to, so you can check us against the funding source on your project.
Certified in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana, city through federal.
Union labor
Hillco Distributing is a signatory union contractor: pipe fitters with Local 597 and sheet metal with Local 73. On projects with participation goals, we partner with the contractor on the job and provide the installation alongside the equipment, so one certified package covers both.
We sell equipment all day long. The labor partnership exists for minority projects only.
