Firestone’s new distribution center will carry the RubberGard Platinum EPDM roofing membrane installed at Denver International Airport.
INDIANAPOLIS - Firestone Building Products Co. announced plans to build a new 160,000-square-foot distribution center adjacent to its EPDM manufacturing plant and distribution center in Prescott, Ariz. The center will provide the company’s complete line of single-ply roofing systems and rooftop accessories. Scheduled to open in late spring 2007, the company’s sixth distribution center will help serve growing customer demand in the South.
“The decision to build another distribution center was based on the need to increase Firestone’s distribution space so we can provide additional service opportunities as our business and product offerings continue to grow,” said Michael Gorey, president of Firestone and chairman, CEO, and president of BFDP Diversified Products. “This investment reflects Firestone’s long-term commitment to provide our customers with a single source for high-quality commercial roofing systems.”
