Tropical Metal Products (TMP) was founded over 40 years ago by Mr. & Mrs. Easton and Isolin McKinley. TMP is a family owned and family -managed industrial enterprise. The McKinley family hail from Santa Cruz, St. Elizabeth. Easton and Isolin came to Kingston as youngsters during the 1950s to further their education. After eleven years of working with ALCAN-Sprostons, Easton decided to start his own business. He purchased second hand equipment and began cutting sheet metal into roofing accessories such as flashing, capping and gutters. With the help of his extended family, Easton sourced and purchased land on which to build a factory.
