ARMA Releases First Report on Asphalt Roofing Product Shipments

The report offers data on asphalt roofing product shipments from 2017 & 2018.

The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association (ARMA) has released its first-ever ARMA Quarterly Product Shipment Report, covering asphalt roofing product shipments in the United States and Canada in the second quarter of 2018. ARMA will publicly release this report, which will include year-to-date shipment information and a comparison with the prior year’s data, on a quarterly basis.

“We’re aware that asphalt roofing data is relevant to several industries; that is why ARMA has decided to make this information accessible to the public,” noted ARMA’s Executive Vice President Reed Hitchcock. “We see this report and future reports as a way of providing meaningful industry shipment information.” Roofing product shipment data is collected from participating manufacturers by an independent third party, Association Research Inc., and aggregated to create this report.
