Long-time roofing industry veteran Paul Seufer recently announced his retirement from N.B. Handy, ending a career spanning nearly four decades.

Seufer retires as general manager of the machinery division, a title he held since 2002. But his time with the company way before that. He joined N.B. Handy, a leading wholesale distributor of commercial roofing products, HVAC equipment and sheet metal fabricating equipment, in 1981 in the sales department and quickly became an account manager. Over the next seven years he became an integral piece of the company’s transition from coal-tar pitch roofing systems to built-up, EPDM roofing.
