GAF to Exhibit New Products and Technologies at Upcoming International Builders' Show
PARSIPPANY, NJ — GAF, North America's largest roofing manufacturer, will continue to have a considerable presence at the International Builders' Show, taking place January 19-21 in Las Vegas. The company will display products in booth C2108 in addition to offering education and insight on cutting-edge apps and technology to help professional builders and contractors grow their businesses.
When it comes to products, attendees will be able to see and touch GAF Glenwood™ Shingles, the thickest triple-layer laminate on the market, as well as the entire GAF Lifetime Designer Shingle line and the most popular shingle brand in North America, the Timberline® Shingle series. The company's focus on tools and technology to support GAF customers will be shown through demonstrations of new and improved apps. See how new estimation and measuring tools, including GAF's Pro Roof Estimator, help to increase close rates and provide more accurate measurements for the roof—and beyond. GAF will also feature the Virtual Home Remodeler, a popular app that allows homeowners to visualize their home with different roofing options, therefore creating a more satisfying in-home selling experience that can solidify homeowners' choices and help reduce call-backs for contractors.
Focus on education will include social media experts from Surefire Social who will be hosting sessions entitled, "5 Ways to Connect Social Media to Your Web Presence to Get More Leads," which gives business owners the tools they need to create an integrated digital marketing strategy and find and manage the right leads from social media.
