About Atlas Roofing
Atlas Roofing Corporation takes pride in being a customer oriented, market
driven, low cost, high quality, environmentally conscious manufacturer
of building materials, and is continually striving to provide opportunities
for those quality employees willing to make a commitment to the Company,
while providing a reasonable return for the stockholders. With this mission
as its foundation, Atlas Roofing Corporation has grown from a single roofing
products manufacturing facility to a multi-plant,
national corporation providing premium quality roofing and insulation
products for distribution throughout the world.
Through its ACFoam®
family of insulation products, Atlas is well established in the construction
industry. The Company offers a complete line of roofing sheathing insulation
products, all manufactured in state-of-the-art facilities and shipped
from its nationwide network of manufacturing plants. All ACFoam product
cores are closed-cell, polyiso foam, the most widely used and accepted
foam insulation product in use today because of its dimensional stability,
superior fire performance characteristics and ability to retain high,
warranted R-Values.
Addressing Environmental Issues Through Improved Technology
 As
the pioneer manufacturer of foam insulation products produced without
the use of environmentally harmful blowing agents, Atlas research specialists
remain actively engaged in the development of innovative, energy-related
insulation products, while maintaining the traditionally outstanding thermal
and mechanical properties expected from Atlas. For instance, in accordance
with the Montreal Protocol and while working closely with its suppliers,
trade associations, and other government agencies, Atlas played a key
role in the 1993 development of a new blowing agent, HCFC, for use in
manufacturing polyiso insulation. Further, in response to other environmental
concerns, the primary facers for most Atlas roof insulation products are
produced in-house from 100% recycled materials. To reach its goal of continued
worldwide market penetration, and through its expansion into Canada and
Mexico, the world of Atlas Roofing Corporation is continuing to grow and
the Company is fulfilling its mission of providing quality products whenever
and wherever the need may demand.
