WASHINGTON, D.C. – Mike DuCharme, vice president product marketing at Carlisle Construction Materials, has been named the new chair of the EPDM Roofing Association (ERA) by the group’s board of directors. He replaces Jennifer Ford-Smith, director of marketing and single ply product management at Johns Manville, who will remain on the board.
“I’ve worked with ERA since its founding more than a decade ago,” said DuCharme. “This organization has made valuable contributions to our industry, providing science-based information about the durability and sustainability of EPDM. As we move forward and roofing resilience becomes increasingly important, it’s an honor to be leading ERA and helping to guide its important work.”
