CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif., Sept. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Robert H. Peterson Company, a leading manufacturer of premium gas grills and gas logs, has announced it has acquired exterior fire products company Designs by Garry, Inc. (DBG). The acquisition reinforces the importance of the growing trend in outdoor living. With DBG, Robert H. Peterson Company will offer an expanded line of high-quality, superior-design outdoor fire products to enhance the outdoor living space.
DBG specializes in the design and manufacturing of innovative, modular exterior fire-based products made from durable, lightweight cast concrete.

The custom-designed barbecue islands can be modified to meet any space requirements and product specifications.

DBG has been in operation for more than two decades and initially launched as a custom interior furniture and architectural detail company by owners Garry and Michele Lieser. 12 years ago Garry developed the idea of a lightweight exterior fireplace that can be easily assembled in any backyard. The units were built from an innovative, exceptionally strong type of concrete now known as Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) GFRC derives its strength from a high dosage of alkali-resistant glass fiber and acrylic polymer that results in concrete that is flexible without cracking. The line has grown to include large and small fireplaces, fire tables, fire urns, fire pits and fire walls.
