Box-To-Wraps Packaging on Low-Slope Self-Adhered Membranes
Wraps are an upgrade, so we wanted to let you know…
With continuous commitment to enhance our customer experience and improve product performance while remaining competitive and relevant to market needs, Polyglass U.S.A., Inc. is upgrading the packaging for low-slope self-adhered roofing membranes from boxes to high-performance roll wraps.
This transition will begin in February 2022 for our customers served by production out of our Nevada facility and continues as a rolling change through July 2022 for our customers being served by Polyglass’ Texas, Florida, and Pennsylvania manufacturing facilities.
During this transition, Polyglass will continue shipping boxed products from finished goods inventory until inventory is depleted. This will be managed on a plant-by-plant and product-by-product basis. Polyglass Customer Service will advise customers when a purchase order should be modified to reflect roll wrapped products and provide the updated product codes and quantities. Please contact Jim Gory, RoofTech Associates, your best advisor on all the Polyglass wrap changes, call 407-342-4282 to get more details.
