Roofing Accessories

Roofing Accessories

Accessories are a key part of any roofing project and suppliers of roofing materials are increasingly looking to accessories for improved performance and growth potential. New roofing demand often plays more of a key role in supporting roofing accessories demand than reroofing, as the installation of every roof generally requires a certain quantity of roofing accessories. In contrast, reroofing projects can vary in scope and therefore in the amount of accessories required. Demand for accessories in value terms going forward will be boosted by the increasing use of products with higher-per square costs. However, many roofing accessory categories (e.g., fasteners, flashing, gypsum and polyiso cover board) will remain mostly commodity products that compete for sales based on price.  This new study discusses how these factors will impact sales of roofing accessories going forward.   

Demand is segmented by product type:
Underlayment (asphaltic and synthetic)
Compounds (liquid-applied roof coatings; adhesives and primers; and sealants, caulks, mastics)
Fasteners (nails, staples, screws, rivets, staples, nuts, caps, washers, plates, and other fasteners)
Cover Boards (gypsum; polyiso; and, mineral wood, fiberglass, perlite, fibreboard, and asphaltic)
Flashings (metal; plastic and asphaltic)
Other Accessories (drains, vents, and stacks; battens; and walkways, snow guards, and green roofing system components)

Markets include:
Residential (new and reroofing)
Commercial (new and reroofing)

Subregions include:
