  self-adhered base system in 1996 and UltraPly
  thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) in 1999 that
  cemented Firestone roofing as one of the leading
  names in the commercial roofing industry.

  Firestone as they introduced a second brand of
  roofing system to the market called GenFlex after
  acquiring GenFlex Building Products from OMNOVA
  Solutions Inc. This also marked a significant
  acquisition in the form of a thermoplastic
  membrane manufacturing plant in Alabama and a
  distribution center in Ohio.
