Commercial Roofing with COVID-19 Market Impact Analysis (US Market & Forecast)

This Freedonia industry study analyzes the 91.50 million squares US commercial roofing industry. It presents historical demand data (2009, 2014, and 2019) and forecasts (2024 and 2029) by product (plastic single-ply, metal, bituminous, rubber, asphalt shingles, and other), by application (new and reroofing) and US geographic subregion. The study also evaluates company market share and competitive analysis on industry competitors, including Carlisle Construction Materials, Johns Manville, Firestone Building Products, and GAF Materials.

Study Highlights Include:

• Plastic single-ply roofing - especially TPO membranes - will take market share going forward

• Metal roofing will see gains as consumers increasingly opt for these weather-resistant materials

• Products that meet cool roofing criteria will see rising use due to increasing interest in boosting energy efficiency

• The South will remain the nation's largest regional commercial roofing market
