Advanced Metal Roofing Named in Top Metal Roofing Companies Nationwide by Metal Construction News

Advanced Metal Roofing Named in Top Metal Roofing Companies Nationwide by Metal Construction News











Advanced Metal Roofing is a Top Metal Roofing Company


Wilmington, N.C. (PRWEB) July 26, 2011

James P. Kenton, owner and CEO of Advanced Metal Roofing, is pleased to announce that for the fourth consecutive year Advanced Metal Roofing has been named by Metal Construction News as one of the largest metal roofing firms in the nation. The July 2011 issue of Metal Construction News lists Advanced Metal Roofing as the second largest metal roofer by square footage installed, the same position it held in 2010.

Advanced Metal Roofing is a leading residential metal roofing company currently serving homeowners in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Massachusetts with expert metal roof product and installation. They are the exclusive dealers for the patented MetalMan Roofing System® featuring Galvalume Steel and Kynar 500 Paint Finish. These features ensure durability, long life expectancy, vibrant and long lasting metal roof colors, as well as significant energy savings. In addition, every roof comes with a limited Lifetime Warranty. Advanced Metal Roofing takes great pride in their product, service, and expertise in the field of metal roofing.

Metal Construction News is an authority in the metal building industry, publishing news related to businesses, products, and strategies in the metal construction field. According to their website, they are “devoted to educating building systems contractors, general contractors, suppliers, manufacturers and more…” Each year, Metal Construction News publishes results of the Top Metal Roofers based on square footage and tonnage installed. Advanced Metal Roofing has made that list for the past four years.

Mr. Kenton attributes his company’s continuing success to the demonstrated quality of its products, namely the MetalMan Roofing System®, and Advanced Metal Roofing’s emphasis on superior workmanship and customer service. “The MetalMan Roofing System offers advantages to homeowners,” comments Mr. Kenton, “including the cool roof technology that helps lower home energy costs during peak seasons and the Kynar 500 finish that helps preserve and maintain the vivid roof colors over a long period of time.”

Metal Construction News conducted a survey of the 2011 Top Metal Roofers to determine how they’ve been able to thrive in a struggling economy (see: http://www.metalconstructionnews.com/articles/magazine-features/the-2011-top-metal-roofers.aspx). Many of the roofing companies, including Advanced Metal Roofing, have experienced success because they focus on retrofit work, or re-roofing on existing homes and buildings, while the new construction market has been slow to recover. Retrofit work makes sense to homeowners because the return on investment (ROI) with a metal roof is strong given the long life expectancy, low maintenance, durability, and energy savings. It is a smart, sound home improvement investment that eliminates the need for further re-roofing for 50 years or more.

HeatGenie Forges Strategic Alliance with Crown Holdings, Inc. to Develop Self-Heating Packaging for Food and Beverage Companies

HeatGenie Forges Strategic Alliance with Crown Holdings, Inc. to Develop Self-Heating Packaging for Food and Beverage Companies











HeatGenie’s self-heating technology is integrated into packaging to warm food or beverages anytime, anywhere.


Austin, TX (PRWEB) April 19, 2011

Austin-based, self-heating technology developer, HeatGenie and packaging products supplier, Crown Holdings, Inc. (http://www.crowncork.com), announced today that they have signed a joint development agreement to integrate HeatGenie’s patented high-efficiency, solid-fuel technology into food and beverage packaging.

The HeatGenie self-heating technology, under development since 2008, heats beverages or foods within their package. To activate, consumers simply press a button at the bottom of the package. The compact modular heat source at the base of the package is about the size of a small tea candle and weighs just 1.33 ounces. The common, food-safe material within the heater provides high content energy and heat at a controlled rate. The end result is a cup of hot coffee or a bowl of soup, safely heated in the hand of the consumer in less than two minutes.

HeatGenie’s approach to self-heating is unlike other self-heating systems familiar to the food and beverage industry. Previous self-heating technologies involved mixing quicklime or other chemicals with water. With the highly efficient solid-fuel system used in the HeatGenie system, consumers will enjoy a larger serving size of product in a lighter, fully-recyclable package. Heating times are four to six times faster and the heater itself is eight times more compact than earlier self-heating systems.

“We’ve looked at a lot of different self-heating technologies and we think this is the right one,” said Daniel Abramowicz, executive vice president of technology and regulatory affairs at Crown. “Together, HeatGenie and Crown have the expertise and resources to bring this unique technology to the food and beverage industry.”

Innovating for sustainability and recyclability is also key priority for both Crown and HeatGenie. There is no need to separate the HeatGenie heating device from the beverage or food can after use. The heating unit components are environmentally safe and recyclable before and after activation. Materials not recovered in the recycling process are entirely benign and normally present in the metals recovery process.

HeatGenie CEO Brendan Coffey, “We are excited about this new development opportunity with Crown. As we developed our technology here at HeatGenie we recognized the need to engage with technology partners who had experience and expertise in self-heating packaging. The partnership with Crown will accelerate development and commercialization.”

Will coffee, soup, and pasta in new self-heating packages be on grocery store shelves in the near future? Innovators like Crown and HeatGenie are betting on it.

About HeatGenie

HeatGenie™ has pioneered a safe, patent-pending, self-heating technology that can easily integrate into multiple forms of consumer packaging to heat food and beverages “on the go.” HeatGenie is the first and only company to satisfy the non-negotiable criteria for a commercially viable self-heating: safety, ease of use, cost effectiveness, light weight and sustainability. HeatGenie is a trademark of Ironbridge Technologies, Inc. For more information visit: http://www.heatgenie.com.

About Crown Holdings, Inc.

Crown Holdings, Inc., through its subsidiaries, is a leading supplier of packaging products to consumer marketing companies around the world. World headquarters are located in Philadelphia, PA. For more information, visit http://www.crowncork.com.
