MFM Building Products Celebrates 50th Anniversary

September 13, 2011
MFM Building Products is celebrating the company’s 50th Anniversary. The company was founded in 1961 by Robert E. Simpson.

MFM Building Products was founded in 1961 by Robert E. Simpson. Its headquarters is in Coshocton, Ohio.


COSHOCTON, Ohio - MFM Building Products is celebrating the company’s 50th Anniversary. The company was founded in 1961 by Robert E. Simpson. Initially, the company manufactured products used for wrapping underground pipe to protect it from water penetration. MFM expanded this technology to develop sealing and waterproofing products for use within the general construction industry.

Today, MFM manufactures an array of weather barrier products that include low-slope roofing membranes, roofing underlayments, window and door flashing tapes, multi-purpose waterproofing membranes, construction and roof tapes, and HVAC duct and pipe wrap. MFM products are all made in the United States and sold through an extensive distributor network.

The year 2011 also marks the 200th Anniversary of the City of Coshocton, Ohio. As part of the Bicentennial festivities, the city is assembling a time capsule from local businesses. MFM contributed to the time capsule by submitting a full presentation on the company, its history, product samples, company literature, and a list of current employees. The time capsule will opened in 2061. For more information, visit www.mfmbp.com.
