UNION REACHES MILESTONE WITH OVER 100 METALPRO CONTRACTORS

(Fayetteville, North Carolina, January 2010) —(Fayetteville, North Carolina, March 2010) -Union Corrugating recently signed its 100th MetalPro contractor, making it one of the most extensive metal roofing factory training programs in the country.

"The MetalPro program has proven to be a great success for contractors, for Union, and ultimately for homeowners", said Jason Thornton, Union's Director of Marketing and National Accounts. Jason continued, "Metal roofing is the best technology out there, but if it's not installed correctly, the homeowner will be disappointed. MetalPro helps both new and experienced metal roofing contractors refine their skills and stay up to date on the latest installation procedures. In the classroom setting, we've also found that contractors learn a lot from each other by sharing their own experiences and techniques. Ultimately, the goal of the program is to produce experienced contractors and happy homeowners".

As a result of the program's success, Union is ramping up the MetalPro training schedule in 2010. Training classes are held periodically throughout Union's service area and the sessions are exclusively for MetalPro members.
