The Roofing Contractor “Top 100 Contractors” feature will run in our August 2010 issue and now is the time to make sure you are part of it by registering online.
The 2010 International Roofing Expo took place on the show floor of the D and E Halls at the Morial Convention Center in New Orleans on Feb. 22-24. Here’s a recap if you missed out.
There’s a new water-based coating on the market that is taking roofs and building envelopes by storm. It’s called Kynar Aquatec, a platform of emulsions developed by Philadelphia-based Arkema Inc. What this new coating is doing is raising industry standards for durability and performance of water-based roof coatings.
The biggest roofing
show of the year — the International Roofing Expo — got off to an auspicious
start Tuesday when the scheduled keynote speaker, NBA Hall of Famer Bill
Walton, was given doctor’s orders not to travel because of a bad back.
Basketball Hall of Famer and Emmy-winning broadcaster Bill
Walton will be the keynote speaker at the International Roofing Expo in Las Vegas on Feb. 3 where
he is sure to grab the attention of the thousands of roofers who are looking
for a winning formula in the industry.
I hope you had the opportunity to attend the Midwest Roofing
Contractor’s Association (MRCA) National Conference Nov. 12-14 at the Gaylord
Texan Resort & Convention Center near Dallas.
Not only was the venue the most beautiful resort you will
ever be in; the hospitality offered by the MRCA staff was near flawless.
