DALLAS - The 2010 International Roofing Expo recently concluded its annual Space Draw process, assigning 76 percent of the show floor to 247 companies in 650 booths.

Taking place Feb. 22-24, 2010, in the D & E Halls at the Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, La., the show will offer roofing contractors, builders, remodelers, building owners, facility managers, and architects a comprehensive preview of the roofing construction and maintenance marketplace.

“We’re quite pleased with the number of companies who have committed to exhibit at the 2010 International Roofing Expo,” said Donna Bellantone, Director of the Expo. “Attendees will have access to virtually every product category and price point.” Making up the 247 companies who have reserved space are key manufacturers such as ABC Supply Co., CertainTeed, GAF, Firestone Building Products, Johns Manville Roofing Systems, Metalforming, OMG Roofing Products, Owens Corning, Soprema, and 3M Industrial Mineral Products Division, just to name a few.

Exhibitors returning to the show after an absence of a year or more include Kennedy Skylights, Modi-Systems, Sealoflex, Sunbelt Vacuum Service, and TDR Systems.

Participating in Space Draw for the first time included companies such as Ambassador Energy, East Coast Metal Systems, On Top Safety, and R.M. Lucas Co.

“The fact that so many companies have signed up for booth space is a testament of their commitment to the industry,” said Bill Good, Executive Vice President of NRCA, the show’s official sponsor. “This promises to be another exciting, must-see event for the roofing industry.”

Although Space Draw has concluded companies can still contract for booth space, which will now be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.
