Owens Corning announces changes in leadership.

Owens Corning, a branded building products leader, today announced that Jonathan Collins has been named executive vice president and chief financial officer, effective August 10. Collins is a seasoned finance executive with strong operational expertise and a proven background in scaling rapidly evolving businesses and driving growth.

Collins succeeds Todd Fister, who assumes the role of president and chief operating officer, following a planned transition from his previously announced dual responsibilities as chief financial and operating officer. Fister will lead the execution of key enterprise initiatives to drive growth and performance, leveraging the company’s unique OC Advantages™ to further integrate its go-to-market strategy and simplify and standardize work across the enterprise.

Brian Chambers, chair and chief executive officer, said, “Jonathan is an experienced public company CFO with a track record of delivering strong results and leading high-performing teams. He will bring valuable perspective as we continue to advance our strategy. At the same time, Todd’s deep strategic and operational expertise, combined with his knowledge of our customers, markets and applications, will be critical to capturing the benefits of our more focused company. Together, Jonathan and Todd have a powerful combination of capabilities to accelerate our growth and create additional value for customers and shareholders.”

Collins joins Owens Corning from Clarivate, a global provider of transformative intelligence through data, insights and analytics, and workflow solutions, where he served as Chief Financial Officer since 2021. There, he led the capital deployment to integrate generative AI into the company’s solutions while significantly expanding free cash flow. Prior to joining Clarivate, he was Chief Financial Officer at Dana Incorporated where he led the financial, information technology, corporate strategy, and business development functions as well as the digital solutions and aftermarket businesses. He also spent six years at ProQuest where he served as chief financial officer and vice president global financial operations. Collins earned an MBA with distinction from the University of Michigan's Stephen M. Ross School of Business and holds a bachelor's degree from Cedarville University.

Collins said, “I am excited to join Owens Corning at this important point in the company’s evolution. Owens Corning has leading market positions, a disciplined operating model, and commitment to delivering strong performance and cash generation that provide a compelling foundation for long-term value creation. I look forward to working with the team to build on the momentum of the reshaped, residential-focused company and support its strategic priorities.”

In the latest ARMA Accident Prevention Contest, Owens Corning Roofing plants earned recognition in three categories.

Owens Corning Roofing plants across North America have earned safety recognition from the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association (ARMA) through its annual Accident Prevention Contest, an industry program that recognizes asphalt roofing plants with strong safety performance.

ARMA bases the honors on full-year safety data and criteria aligned with Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards.

Recognition across roofing

In the latest ARMA Accident Prevention Contest, Owens Corning Roofing plants earned recognition in three categories: multi-year excellence, perfect annual safety performance and year-over-year safety improvement.

Eight plants earned the Award of Excellence for achieving three consecutive years with zero safety incidents: Compton, California; Denver, Colorado asphalt; Kearny, New Jersey asphalt; Linnton, Oregon asphalt; Medina, Ohio asphalt; Memphis, Tennessee asphalt; Minneapolis, Minnesota asphalt; and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma asphalt.

Ten plants received Perfect Employee Safety Certificates for achieving a perfect score in the most recent reporting year: Compton, California; Compton, California asphalt; Denver, Colorado asphalt; Irving, Texas asphalt; Kearny, New Jersey asphalt; Linnton, Oregon asphalt; Medina, Ohio asphalt; Memphis, Tennessee asphalt; Minneapolis, Minnesota asphalt; and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma asphalt.

Eight plants earned Safety Improvement recognition for meaningful year-over-year progress in reducing incidents: Atlanta, Georgia; Brentwood, New Hampshire; Compton, California asphalt; Denver, Colorado; Houston, Texas; Irving, Texas asphalt; Memphis, Tennessee; and Minneapolis, Minnesota.

A visible example of Safer Together

Owens Corning’s Safer Together platform reflects the company’s belief that everyone shares responsibility for safety through care, awareness and everyday action. The ARMA recognition gives that commitment a clear example across roofing operations.

“Safety recognition matters because it reflects what employees do every day,” said Ken Creasy, Ph.D., vice president of Roofing operations, strategy, and supply chain. “Across Owens Corning plants, teams identify issues, share concerns, intervene when needed, follow critical procedures, and learn from one another. These actions help create workplaces where safety is practiced through daily decisions and behaviors.”

We had a great time sharing stories and photos over social media with our roofing community!  

National Roofing Week is an annual event hosted by the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) that aims to raise awareness of the roofing professionals who keep our communities safe and secure. The event also acts as a way to build community with other professionals, both near you and across the country.  

Participation in National Roofing Week is primarily conducted online by posting photos and videos through the #NationalRoofingWeek2026 hashtag. And NRCA has created themes for each day of National Roofing Week to guide posts.  

Sunday – Kickoff  

The week kicked off with posts about the importance of roofers. NRCA started everything with a post sharing the schedule for the week and some highlights from last year’s National Roofing Week! Here at The Coffee Shops™ we joined in the fun on all our social media pages, making sure to thank the coating installers, roofing professionals and contractors who make our community amazing. 

Monday – Signature projects 

For the Monday theme, NRCA invited National Roofing Week participants to share photos showcasing their company’s signature residential and commercial projects. There were too many amazing projects posted to put them all here, but some that stood out to us came from QXO, Sika and Eagle Roofing Products!  

QXO’s post was a carousel of some of their customers projects, including one from Toitures Scott, one from Nedlaw Group and one from RUHS in California. Likewise, Eagle Roofing Products’ post showcased signature projects featuring their concrete roof tiles from across the country.  

As for Sika, they took the opportunity to shine the spotlight on their 2025 Sika Project of the Year award winners, which includes stunning projects like the Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center project in Los Angeles, California and the South Station Tower project in Boston.  

Tuesday – Charitable projects 

The next day of National Roofing Week was all about giving back, and the National Women in Roofing (NWIR) Oregon Council stole the show with a free roof!

The replacement went to a community member in need, which is an incredible reminder of the power our industry has to do good.

They put it best in their post:  

Seeing contractors, manufacturers, distributors and industry partners come together with a shared purpose — without competition, without agendas, and focused solely on helping someone else — is truly inspiring. For one day, company names and logos took a back seat to teamwork, generosity and service. 

Projects like this showcase the heart of our industry. The relationships we build, the willingness to lend a hand, and the collective impact we can make when we work together are some of the best parts of being in roofing. 

NWIR extended huge thanks to industry partners, like Malarkey Roofing Products, ABC Supply, SRS Building Products, Owens Corning, Bliss Roofing and Raindrop Roofing NW, for making this incredible charitable project possible. 

Wednesday – Employee appreciation 

The midpoint of the week was all about the people who get things done – the employees that keep our industry moving. For this theme, the #NationalRoofingWeek2026 hashtag was flooded with pictures and appreciations for hardworking workers around the country. 

Drexel Metals posted some behind-the-scenes of their team hard at work, captioning it, “To everyone who continues to show up ready to learn, teach and push the industry forward: thank you. Your commitment is what drives stronger partnerships, better projects and continued progress year after year.” 

IKO Industries and CertainTeed also posted, shouting out the ROOFPROS who get the job done every day and recognizing the “craftsmanship, innovation, and dedication of the teams who help bring CertainTeed products and solutions to life” respectively.  

Thursday – Training and learning 

For Thursday, NRCA chose training as the theme, inviting contractors and companies to share the ways they keep learning and growing on the job. For this theme, GAF joined the party, sharing an incredible milestone from their GAF Roofing Academy – since 2020, the tuition-free program has helped more than 3,000 individuals find employment in the roofing industry!  

And this is just one of the many stories added to the #NationalRoofingWeek2026 hashtag! The Durable Restoration Company posted about the hard work their craftspeople put into their apprenticeship program and QXO shared how they connect their team with everything from stand downs to plant tours. 

Friday – Celebration 

And you can’t have National Roofing Week without taking the time to celebrate the amazing industry we are all a part of! For this theme, the Roofing Contractors Association of Texas (RCAT) took their followers on a trip down memory lane, sharing the “conferences, tournaments, regional events and industry gatherings where Texas roofing professionals connect, learn and celebrate together.”  

Drexel Metals also posted, sharing a common sentiment of thanks related to the power of the industry, “From the shop floor to the jobsite, your dedication, craftsmanship and collaboration are truly what make a lasting impact. We’re proud to be part of an industry built on innovation, resilience and strong partnerships.” 

Saturday – Wrap up 

Overall, this year’s National Roofing Week was a resounding success. From everyone that posted to event sponsors like International Roofing Expo, Georgia-Pacific Building Products, SRS Distribution, Roofing Alliance and SOPREMA, it was all made possible thanks to the incredible roofing community.  

The Coffee Shops crew already can’t wait for next year’s roofing week! As Atlas Roofing put eloquently in their final #NationalRoofingWeek2026 post, “This week gave us the opportunity to celebrate the people, organizations and partnerships that make the roofing industry such a rewarding one to be part of. Here’s to another year of collaboration, innovation and success.”

Owens Corning and Futures Inc. team up to create the Roofing Career Network: the first standardized workforce development system for roofing nationwide. 

The roofing industry continues to grapple with a persistent workforce shortage, prompting manufacturers, contractors and industry partners to rethink how they attract and develop talent. During a recent Coffee Conversations®, Karen Edwards spoke with Jon Gardner of Owens Corning® and Geoff Cramer of Futures Inc. about a new initiative designed to strengthen the industry's talent pipeline. 

Identifying the gaps 

According to Jon, labor and talent shortages remain one of the top concerns among roofing contractors. He cited a combination of factors contributing to the challenge, including an aging workforce, rising labor costs and a lack of qualified candidates entering the trades. "There is a significant supply gap, hundreds of thousands of open roles. There’s a skills gap, with credentialing lagging," Jon said.  

He also pointed to what he called a "perception gap" surrounding roofing careers: "Once you're in the roofing industry, you say to yourself, wow, I can't believe I found this amazing place to create a career. But the perception for folks outside — it's there." 

Lastly, Jon noted a system gap, in which business owners should work toward hiring to build a pipeline with proper education, training and employment processes so that people feel like they’re part of the organization within the culture. 

Geoff added that despite roofing's accessibility as a career path, awareness remains low among young people. "The roofing industry is a $56 billion industry, yet it has no standards for training and entry-level credentials," he stated. "We have 11 million students in community colleges, and they have zero places to go to explore the roofing industry." 

Filling the gaps with the Roofing Career Network 

To address these challenges, Owens Corning has partnered with Futures Inc., a workforce development provider, to create the Roofing Career Network: a national workforce development initiative that aims to connect students, community colleges and roofing contractors through standardized training and technology-driven job placement. 

"We're creating an ecosystem that allows our contractors to look at high-quality students, candidates who are actively seeking an opportunity in the trades connected through the community colleges that are working with these students to put them through the training," Jon said. 

“The beauty, and what's taken three years [to develop], is how do you connect the dots across an integrated solution?” Geoff shared. “This coming fall, we're launching this national program that has the training fundamentals with engaging video that's going to be provided free for almost 23,000 high schools so these kids can and their families can get excited about the opportunities in roofing and find the fastest training program possible.”  

Geoff added that these programs will also be free for contractors to provide emerging crew members not in high school or college with the same resources, from salespeople to installers and estimators.  

Made possible through partnership 

This initiative highlights the importance of collaboration across the industry. Geoff said the partnership between Owens Corning, Futures Inc., community contractors and contractors is what makes Roofing Career Network so unique. 

“We provide a national platform that connects the dots, but it's about people, process and technology all working together. It's really a collaborative effort that's going to make it successful,” Geoff stated. “It’s never been done before, but it's designed to support the industry with their greatest needs while also supporting our education partners who are desperately trying to connect these individuals with jobs.” 

With Futures Inc. providing the platform and Owens Corning taking the initiative to develop the first national standards for training nationwide, the Roofing Career Network is sure to be a game changer.

A look at the Oregon National Women in Roofing Council’s recent calendar. 

Recently, the Oregon Council of National Women in Roofing (NWIR) sent out a snapshot of their recent and upcoming events – and they are certainly keeping busy!  

On April 21, they hosted their 2026 annual member drive, which was a resounding success. The theme of the event was luau and attendees enjoyed a fun, festive afternoon full of prizes and new connections. It was an especially good evening for Tracie Reyes with Superior Roofing, who won the event’s grand raffle prize — a $1,500 Hawaiian Airlines gift card! Overall, it was a great way for the Oregon Council to kick off the spring and get ready for what’s coming in the rest of the year as they continue to build their community.  

Then on May 12, 2026, the Oregon Council worked with SRS Distribution to give their NWIR members a special opportunity – a Hands-On James Hardie training at SRS Distribution Inc. in Clackamas! Trainers at this event walked through everything from siding best practices and installation tips to industry insights and more!  

And just three days after that event, on May 15, 2026, the council was tabling at the Oregon Tradeswomen Career Fair! This event is about introducing women to the apprenticeship and trade opportunities and saw thousands of students, jobseekers and employers come together to network and connect.  

And looking forward, they’re not slowing down! The next big event on the Oregon Council’s calendar is a community service project on June 9, 2026. Held in conjunction with National Roofing Week, this event is the free reroof for a family in Portland, Oregon. The entire project is made possible by donations from NWIR members and industry companies, like Malarkey Roofing Products, Owens Corning, Bliss Roofing, ABC Supply and SRS Distribution. If you want to get involved, there’s still time. You can sign up to donate to the project or send questions to stephaniebaird@comcast.net.

Exploring the three pillars that guide the Owens Corning brand. 

Recently, our team had the chance to talk to Jessica Greer, the brand strategy leader for Owens Corning’s roof division. In our discussion, she dove into what Owens Corning’s adage, more than just a roof, means in practice. Specifically, she walked us through the three pillars – expertise, color and performance – that support that adage.  

When it comes to expertise, that pillar is really about how Owens Corning goes beyond just producing roofing products; they work to support contractors. Jessica explained, “We strive to be the best partners we can for our contractors. In other words, we want to address their pain points and give them solutions and business partners that solve them.” An example of this pillar in action is Owens Corning’s new VR learning solution. Jessica shared a bit about how it helps contractors off the roof, explaining, “In the program, you're able to see live what that demo is looking like and get on-site training from the safety of the ground.” 

And last but not least, the third pillar, performance, is all about providing security and safety in the form of a roofing product. Jessica explained, “Performance is key to anything that we do with our products. We always want to make sure that we create a system that is going to last for homeowners and create peace of mind.”  

Learn more about how Owens Corning delivers more than just a roof by listening to our full interview with Jessica.
