What Progressive Materials does

Progressive Materials LLC is a private manufacturer of 100% silicone roof coating systems headquartered in New Albany, Indiana. Founded in 2011, the company produces a portfolio centered on the Pro Eco-Sil HS 3200 (high solids), Pro Eco-Sil HS 3200-HB (high build), and Pro Poly-Sil LS 2200 (standard solids) silicone series, complemented by premium metallic color variants, an acrylic line (AC-1200), a spray polyurethane foam system (SPF 4700 HFO), and a full accessory stack of primers, flashing-grade sealants, walkway coatings, surface-leveling products, and reinforcement fabrics. The underlying technology is a fluid-applied, monolithic silicone membrane that bonds directly to existing commercial roofing substrates (metal, EPDM, TPO, PVC, modified bitumen, BUR, concrete) without tear-off, is self-flashing around penetrations, and is offered with 5–20 year renewable watertight warranties backed by FM, UL, Energy Star, CRRC, NSF P151, Miami-Dade, TDI, and Florida approvals.

The company sells exclusively through a Certified Licensed Applicator (CLA) network of vetted roofing contractors, supported by regional managers covering the contiguous US, Hawaii, Alaska, and the Caribbean, an in-house Graco-certified equipment expert, a customer portal and e-commerce storefront (pmsiliconepro.com), and international distribution partners. Revenue is generated through one-time product sales to contractors, recurring warranty and recoat cycles, and Graco spray equipment distribution. The end-customer base is heavily skewed to commercial and industrial facility owners and managers (e.g., Kroger, Macy's, Gorilla Glue, Cereal Ingredients, a national retail chain with 20M+ square feet under contract, government buildings, food processing plants, and educational facilities), reached through three primary personas: commercial roofing contractors, facility managers and property owners, and design professionals.

Revenue model

1. Silicone Roof Coating Products: Progressive Materials manufactures and sells a full line of 100% silicone roof coatings including HS (High Solids) and LS (Standard Solids) series, in multiple colors (white, tan, light gray, dark gray, premium metallic colors), as well as acrylic coatings. These are sold to Certified Licensed Applicators (contractors) who in turn install them on commercial and industrial buildings. Revenue is generated through product sales, which may be one-time project-based or recurring through established contractor relationships.

Warranty Programs: Progressive Materials offers Full System Watertight Warranty and Silicone Roof Coating Restoration Watertight Warranty programs ranging from 5 to 20 years for Certified Licensed Applicators. These warranties are provided as part of the system sale and are renewable at the end of the warranty period by applying a recoat.

They offer discounted pricing, expedited shipping, and bulk quantities to contractors.

Core offering

Progressive Materials manufactures 100% silicone roof coatings (HS 3200, LS 2200, and premium metallic series) and foam roofing systems that are applied as fluid-applied, monolithic membranes over existing commercial roofing substrates including metal, single-ply (EPDM, TPO, PVC, Hypalon), modified bitumen, smooth BUR, gravel BUR, and concrete. The company sells its products exclusively through a network of Certified Licensed Applicators (CLAs) — vetted roofing contractors who install the coatings and issue renewable 5–20 year watertight warranties. The company also distributes Graco spray equipment and a full line of primers, sealants, walkway coatings, and accessories that support the RCR (Roof Coating Restoration) system.

Product overview

Progressive Materials is a manufacturer of silicone and acrylic roof coating systems headquartered in southern Indiana. The core product portfolio centers on 100% silicone roof coatings (Pro Eco-Sil HS 3200 Series, Pro Eco-Sil HS 3200-HB High Build Series, Pro Poly-Sil LS 2200 Series) and premium metallic variants (HS 3230 Series), complemented by an extensive accessory line including flashing-grade sealants (FG 400), surface leveling coatings (SL 800, SL 851), walkway systems (PG 700/750), and reinforcement fabrics. The company also offers a full primer system (P-100 through P-160 series) for substrate-specific preparation, acrylic coatings (AC-1200, AM-400) for budget-sensitive applications, and spray foam roofing (SPF 4700 HFO). All products are installed exclusively through a Certified Licensed Applicator (CLA) network that provides renewable 5 to 20-year watertight warranties. The Silicone Roof Coating Restoration (RCR) system is the flagship service offering—a one-coat application that bonds directly to existing substrates without tear-off, reflecting up to 90% of UV rays and creating a seamless, self-flashing membrane.
