Leading roofing manufacturer Duro-Last announced today its strategic expansion in Texas, transitioning operations from Carrollton to a significantly larger Dallas facility to meet surging demand in the rapidly growing southern U.S. market.
The new Dallas location offers 130,000 square feet of modernized manufacturing space, representing more than a 40% increase from the company's existing Texas facility. The upgrade is designed to optimize production flow, expand inventory capacity, and enhance logistical efficiency as Duro-Last continues its national growth trajectory.
"This expansion is a strategic investment in our future, our contractors and the customers they serve," said Chris Warner, vice president of operations at Duro-Last. "As demand continues to grow, we're scaling our operations to maintain the quality, reliability and responsiveness that define the Duro-Last brand."
The Michigan-based manufacturer, known as the "World's Best Roof," specializes in custom-fabricated thermoplastic single-ply roofing systems that can eliminate up to 85% of field seams. This factory-controlled approach reduces on-site labor costs and simplifies installation for contractors managing complex commercial roofing projects.
The Dallas facility's enhanced layout will streamline manufacturing processes, improve product availability, and help reduce lead times—critical advantages for contractors working under tight project schedules in the competitive commercial roofing sector.
"As we grow, we remain focused on delivering the highest level of value to our contractor partners," Warner said. "This move allows us to support their growth with the space, tools and infrastructure needed to exceed expectations in a highly competitive market."
The expansion reflects Duro-Last's commitment to supporting the booming construction activity across the southern United States, where commercial and industrial development has accelerated significantly in recent years. The company, which operates eight manufacturing locations nationwide, has installed more than two billion square feet of its roofing membrane throughout North America.
To minimize service disruptions, Duro-Last plans to execute the relocation in carefully coordinated phases throughout the second half of 2025, with the Dallas facility expected to reach full operational capacity by January 1, 2026.
The move underscores the broader growth strategy of parent company Amrize Building Envelope LLC, part of Amrize (NYSE: AMRZ), which achieved $11.7 billion in revenue in 2024. Amrize operates more than 1,000 sites across North America, serving construction markets from infrastructure and commercial to residential projects.
