From humble beginnings to becoming the largest privately held USA-Made, USA-Owned concrete roof tile manufacturer in the U.S., Eagle Roofing Products has been the company of choice for its customers and partners for over three decades. Founded in 1989 in Rialto, Ca., it is a well-known and trusted leader in concrete roof tile manufacturing, offering resilient and sustainable solutions to the residential, institutional and commercial building construction sectors. A family-owned and operated company, it has expanded its roots from coast to coast with four manufacturing plants, two stocking yards and nine design centers since its genesis to provide products and services throughout the U.S. and Canada.
What started with a single high-pressure concrete tile extrusion machine and five employees has grown into a corporation with over 500 employees and a reputable product offering. With over 150 tile color options, seven profile options and dozens of roofing components, Eagle has created a portfolio of versatile, elegant and energy-efficient products with every type of new construction build and reroof project in mind.
“Over the years, Eagle has stood firm in our resolve to do right by our people and the best interest of our customers and the roofing industry in general. When issues arise in society, business or the economy, we remain loyal to our mission of providing quality products no matter what,” stated Vice President of Sales and Marketing, John Campbell. “The future may seem uncertain but with the right resources and our steadfast commitment of team members, we are confident in the new heights we will reach.”
Its plans for Eagle's future include expanding their roof tile and components offerings, as well as creating a robust internal learning initiative designed to strengthen employee skills. “We have a ton of new internal and external projects in the works. We recently launched an online reservation system, Time Is Money, to better help our customers with reduced truck turnaround times and now we are rolling out Order Eagle 2.0, a new and improved ordering platform to benefit distributors, roofers and dispatchers. We are also creating meaningful roof tile systems with our products and updated components that help our roofing partners simplify the selling process. There is a lot in the works and our goal is to help our customers in every way we can,” Campbell stated.
Eagle attributes its success to its unwavering commitment to stellar customer service. Regardless of role or status, the company has firmly developed a company culture that prioritizes transparency, reliability and quality to ensure that each customer’s needs are met. “We wouldn’t have gotten this far without our team members and it is because of them that we’ll celebrate another 35 years and more,” Campbell noted.
