Polyglass and partners provide storm-ready roof for Gold Star family
Polyglass, DH2, SPEC, and Brandon Roofing teamed up to gift a storm-resilient roof to a Gold Star family in Florida, honoring their fallen Army Ranger.
In a powerful act of community support, Polyglass USA joined forces with DH2 Building Associates, SPEC Building Materials, and Brandon Roofing to provide a storm-resilient roof for a Florida Gold Star family.
The initiative honored the sacrifice of Army Ranger Josh, who gave his life in service, and also demonstrated how partnerships within the roofing industry can protect families and strengthen communities ahead of hurricane season.
“At Polyglass, we believe in more than just building roofs—we believe in building community,” said Lynn Connors, director of strategic marketing at Polyglass. “Being able to support a Gold Star family here in Florida means everything to us.”
The project included more than 2,000 square feet of roofing on the family’s single-family home near Tampa. Polyglass donated its Polystick IR-Xe underlayment, designed for superior performance in extreme weather conditions. DH2 contributed asphalt shingles, Brandon Roofing provided installation labor, and SPEC Building Materials offered critical distribution and logistics support.
The project was completed in January 2025, with a commemorative video produced to share the story with a broader audience. The initiative is part of Polyglass’ ongoing Giving Back commitment to support communities, veterans, and families affected by natural disasters.
As hurricane season intensifies across the Southeast, this story underscores the importance of strong, durable roofing systems, and the power of partnerships that extend beyond business.
