SILICONE IS ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING ROOFING SYSTEMS – EVER
Silicone roof coatings, as we’ve discussed in the past, served the purpose of protecting spray foam when they first entered the market. More recently, however, silicone has been used to restore existing roofs. Entering the roofing market as a new product isn’t an easy thing to do, but silicone roof coatings have taken the market by storm. We’ve discussed the benefits of silicone and why it is being adopted so quickly, but let’s look at how and by whom it is being adopted for a better understanding at what is driving it’s growth.
The Nation’s Largest Contractors
Five of the ten largest contractors in the US (according to Roofing Contractor Magazine) use silicone roof coatings. Not just coatings, but silicone. If the biggest players in the game believe in a product enough to add it to their portfolio, it’s a product you should pay attention to.
Building Owners with Millions of Square Feet
We have multiple customers who have over 100 million square feet under roof. They have tested, and later approved, silicone roof coatings over a large percentage of their buildings. Major national and international coatings have developed entire portfolio roof rehabilitation systems around silicone, rather than tearing off or installing a second roof. The building owners who have the most skin in the game are extremely happy with silicone roof coatings.
Fortune 500 Companies
Progressive Materials alone has sold to 16 Fortune 500 companies, 4 of whom are in the top 20. Not only do Fortune 500 companies choose silicone, but the largest Fortune 500 companies choose silicone. Again, large companies who put a lot of time and effort into researching their next roof choose silicone.
Conclusion
The growth of silicone roof coatings has been nothing short of amazing. It has taken the commercial roofing market by storm. This growth is driven by its outstanding performance at a low price point and the adoption from the major players listed above.
