2007 IRE Show, Las Vegas

Two consecutive years and the International Roofing Expo is a winner in Las Vegas, again!

According to the figures this year's event topped the 10 000 attendance mark, making it the largest event in the industry's history in North America. What do so many do in the Las Vegas Convention Centre? Well with over 465 exhibitors, 1049 booths and 9750 m2 of displays, the answer is... A Lot!

Since taking over the rights to the show, organizers Hanley Woods Exhibitions has allied with not just the NRCA but major industry publications, to promote and grow this event. According to Rick McConnel vice president of Hanley Woods "With the long-term health of the roofing market being solid, the opportunity for continued growth is high. No other industry event offers attendees the chance to see the industry leading manufacturers and distributors for everything from materials, equipment, tools, services and technology for all sectors including residential, commercial, metal and asphalt roofing in one venue."

If you could not make it this time, plan for next year when IRE tries to make it Three-of-a-Kind in 2008!
