With a legacy of craftsmanship that spans over 75 years, we know quality.
That’s why contractors and their customers trust IKO to deliver beautiful, high-performing roofing systems that can withstand rigorous conditions – and continue protecting families for generations to come.
At IKO®, our heritage lies in high-performing roofing products that last. We’re experts in performance because we’ve been honing it with a legacy of craftsmanship for the past 75 years.
“Seventy-five years in, IKO isn’t slowing down—we’re accelerating,” said Jack Gottesman, Marketing and Brand Director at IKO North America. “Opening three new manufacturing plants this year is part of a multi-year expansion as we continue investing in the future of our business and the roofing industry.”
Manufacturing excellence continues to be a key focus for IKO. Last year, the company broke ground on a new granule facility in Missouri and announced the grand opening of its IKO Metals roofing plant in Ennis, Texas. The 205,000-square-foot facility, located on a 42-acre site, features cutting-edge technology for the manufacturing of stone-coated metal roofing in tile, shake and shingle profiles under the DECRA® and Tilcor® brands. As 2026 begins, IKO is entering a new chapter of growth with the upcoming launch of two plants in Chester, South Carolina, and one in Clay Hill, Florida. In addition, we will break ground on our first XPS plant in Brantford, Ontario. These new facilities will expand production capabilities, create local jobs and strengthen IKO’s North American footprint.
Also new is Beyond™, IKO’s sustainability program focused on environmental responsibility, people, and business practices. With homeowners and contractors becoming increasingly conscious of sustainability practices, IKO Beyond is a central hub that showcases the company’s existing programs, strategic partnerships and innovative solutions rooted in IKO’s core values.
The Halifax workshop, the first-ever Profit Power roofing contractor workshop in the Atlantic Provinces, brought together contractors at the scenic Marriott Harbourfront Hotel overlooking the Halifax Harbour. Industry leaders shared hard-earned insights; attendees were seen scribbling notes, soaking up personal lessons from Dmitry Lipinskiy of Roofing Insights, who shared his journey building a successful roofing business and practical tips for leveling up social media in today’s digital era. Other Halifax speakers included Wade Brown from JobNimbus and Mitch Beaulieu of Advanced Level Roofing, offering guidance on scaling businesses. Mitch has been an IKO ROOFPRO Craftsman Premier contractor since 2020 and has grown his business from Calgary in 2016 to five cities today. After the workshops, contractors wrapped up the day with axe throwing and networking at the happy hour.
In Winnipeg, the energy was just as high, with another full house. Sessions included Wade Brown on peak performance, Jason Ashman from Scorpion on digital marketing and Dimitry’s signature business-building advice. The event also featured Steve Bunin, an executive communication coach and former sportscaster for ESPN, CBS, FOX and more, who taught attendees the art of storytelling. Through interactive exercises, roofers practiced delivering winning pitches and communicating their value, gaining practical tips they could use immediately.
Attendees also learned about IKO’s manufacturing excellence, vertical integration and the ROOFPRO contractor loyalty program, demonstrating how IKO supports contractors not only with products but also with collaborations, growth and opportunities to thrive.
Scorpion and JobNimbus are among the many strategic partnerships available to all ROOFPRO members, giving contractors access to tools designed to help them work smarter and sell more.

IKO, a global leader in roofing materials, is expanding its Cool Colors Plus™ lineup with two new shingle options designed to meet California’s cool roof requirements: Harbor Black in the Dynasty® collection and Shoreline Grey in the Cambridge® line.
Harbor Black – The darkest IKO cool roof yet
Harbor Black joins the IKO Dynasty Cool Colors Plus lineup launched in October 2024 with Dual Brown, Graphite Black, Pebble Grey, Bayshore and Coastal Sands as the brand’s deepest shade to date. With its bold, high-definition appearance, it delivers a striking curb appeal.
Shoreline Grey – Light, striking and energy-efficient
Shoreline Grey, part of the IKO Cambridge Cool Colors Plus line, offers a crisp light grey tone with bold dark accents for a refined architectural look.
With Proven Performance at the core, Harbor Black and Shoreline Grey deliver an SRI of 20+, which can be used to meet California Title 24 and LA reflectance standards. Both offer Class 3 impact resistance* with heavy-duty laminated construction that may qualify homeowners for insurance discounts. As part of the Dynasty line, Harbor Black features ArmourZone® technology for easier installation, stronger nail hold and wind resistance up to 130 mph (210 km/h). All Cool Colors Plus shingles exceed reflectivity standards by up to 25%, helping reduce attic heat and improve indoor comfort.

Mitch Stevens - an IKO Craftsman Premier from Saskatchewan - shares stories of the success that his roofing team has found over the past seven years using IKO shingles and products. He has used IKO shingles since day one is and proud to be an IKO ROOFPRO. Using IKO Dynasty shingles means that he doesn’t have to worry about fixing shingles that blow off.
Brad from Veteran Roofing reflects on his first five years in business and discusses IKO Dynasty's performance during Hurricane Delta in 2020.
Matt and Erin Weston, owners of Calendar Construction in Charleston, WV discuss why they recommend using IKO's Dynasty shingles for their clients. They discuss curb appeal - how the shingle's combination of high definition colors and texture help set apart their clients' homes from their neighbors. Erin also mentions the quality of the shingles and the ArmourZone, a reinforced nailing zone that helps protect against wind uplift. Paula, a homeowner and customer of Calendar Construction whose previous roof was damaged by hail, testifies how she contacted Matt and showed her IKO's products. Paula mentions how the shingles have a 'wow' factor and how pleased she is with how her roof came out.
