As a proud 501(c)(3) foundation, the Roofing Alliance has consistently championed meaningful change, elevating the industry's professional image through strategic branding and impactful philanthropy outreach.
The Roofing Alliance also unites a diverse membership of more than 200 contractors, manufacturers, suppliers, and industry professionals. This collective strength uniquely positions us as a central force within the roofing community. Together, our members have invested over $16 million to fund transformative research, educational initiatives, and scholarships, all dedicated to enhancing industry performance and long-term success.
Our tangible impact is profound, including the funding of 56 groundbreaking research projects that address critical economic and technological challenges. Beyond technical advancements, we are deeply committed to supporting community outreach and celebrating the skilled workers who form the backbone of our industry.
At the Roofing Alliance, we also recognize that education is the foundation of industry excellence. By cultivating strategic partnerships and spearheading targeted construction management initiatives at the university level, we not only empower current and future leaders but also foster meaningful collaboration across academia and industry.
Looking ahead, the Roofing Alliance remains steadfast in its mission to advance education, harness technological innovations, and expand its research efforts. To accomplish this, the Roofing Alliance and Clemson University’s Nieri Department of Construction, Development and Planning recently launched a Center for Roofing Innovation and Leadership—a first-of-its-kind for the roofing industry that will drive innovative research and create workforce development opportunities to address key challenges in the roofing industry.
Guided by a vision for a dynamic, sustainable, and thriving roofing industry, the Roofing Alliance is elevating standards dedicated to creating a brighter, more prosperous future for all stakeholders in the roofing community, as well as the next generation of roofing professionals.
