Asphalt system overkill
Manufacturers often give their roofing contractor customers more asphalt-based roof system choices than they need. Choice can be a good thing, but not when it threatens to confuse customers, complicates the sales process and drives up costs. It is in customers' best interests to not offer a dozen products that provide the same features. If manufacturers can successfully produce fewer SKUs, it will improve competitiveness, cost and profits for the asphalt roofing industry.
