February Means Time for International Roofing Expo

February means it’s the stretch run to Feb. 22-24 when the 2010 International Roofing Expo opens in New Orleans. 

February means it’s the stretch run to Feb. 22-24 when the 2010 International Roofing Expo opens in New Orleans.

Every contractor, distributor, supplier and manufacturer wants to be more profitability this year, and there is no one roofing industry event that does it better than the IRE.

For starters, there will be 850 booths containing the products and services that will help make your company more profitable. The 350 exhibiting companies offer you an opportunity to shake hands with the leaders and talk business.

IRE organizers said the show is unique, in part, because a Product Showcase highlights industry trends and green products in a non-selling environment.

IRE has something for everybody. For example, metal roofers can converse at the Metal Marketplace and talk with folks who supply the metal industry with building designs, tools and services. Also this year, the Exhibitor Product Clinics will have live demonstrations by OMG, Soprema and Equipter.

Of note, and new this year, those who arrive in New Orleans a day early on Feb. 21 can take part in Community Service Day, a home renovation and revitalization project that will be performed for a needy family.

Organizers said a Power Panel will kick off the first day of the show, while educational programs will be highlighted during all days of IRE covering  technical, workplace safety, leadership/management, green building, legal/HR, money matters, sales/service and general business.

So, if you haven’t already, sign up today for the best roofing industry show in the business. For more information on IRE, to be held at the Morial Convention Center, visit www.TheRoofingExpo.com or call 972-819-7606 or 866-860-1970.
