S-5! Presenting at IRE, Introducing New SnoBracket™ for IMP Roofs

S-5!'s new SnoBracket is designed specifically for mounting snow retention systems to insulated metal roof panel profiles.

Colorado Springs, CO – S-5!, one of the world's leading authorities on metal roof attachment solutions, will introduce its new SnoBracket attachment technology at the International Roofing Expo (IRE) in Dallas from March 7-9. Additionally, Rob Haddock, S-5!’s Founder and CEO, will present the fundamentals of Understanding Metal Roofing: Parts I and II, providing the opportunity for attendees to earn continuing education credits.

Attendees are invited to stop by S-5! Booth #3721 to see first-hand the company's new SnoBracket for mounting snow retention systems to insulated metal panel (IMP) roofs. The SnoBracket is specially designed to provide the strength required for snow retention applications with “sheet-only” attachments. Created specifically for trapezoidal-ribbed IMPs, it comes in two models to fit popular rib profile dimensioning. When paired with S-5! ColorGard^®, SnoBracket offers an ideal snow retention solution with durable, tested, watertight and proven products. The S-5! team will be on-hand to explain the features and benefits of this technology.

S-5!’s Founder and Director of the Metal Roof Advisory Group, Rob Haddock, is a featured speaker at the show. On Wednesday, March 8, beginning at 7.45 a.m., he will present an introduction to Understanding Metal Roofing: Part I. Often billed as "Metal Roofing 101," and known as the best “crash course” available for all in-industry personnel, it includes technical information presented in a common-sense fashion that makes the art and science of metal roofing clear, concise and understandable. Contractors, salespeople, architects, specifiers, roof consultants, engineers, building owners and maintenance staff will all benefit from attending.

Then, later that same morning beginning at 9.30 a.m., Haddock will present Understanding Metal Roofing: Part II, supplementing and expanding the metal roofing essentials covered in Part I earlier that day. 

Haddock is a well-known expert in the field and has worked in various aspects of metal roofing for five decades―beginning as a laborer, then contractor, forensic consultant, technical author, educator, innovator, CEO and founder of S-5!, a leading authority on metal roof attachment solutions.

Haddock's innovations have resulted in 100+ patents, and his hundreds of writings and lectures have been translated into at least 10 languages. He has won numerous industry awards from MCA, CSI, ASTM and MBMA. For 35+ years, Rob has been a featured speaker at a variety of industry tradeshows. His practical experience, colorful background and world travel add flavor to his technical expertise resulting in a “must-attend” course that is as poignant as it is entertaining for every educational or experience level in metal roofing trades and practices.
