Published July 16, 2018 by Veronica Garabelli

Herndon-based Beacon Roofing Supply Inc. said Monday it has acquired Atlas Supply Inc., a major distributor of sealants, coatings, adhesives and related waterproofing products. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Founded in Seattle in 1917, Atlas has grown to six locations, with stores in Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, and Mountlake Terrace in Washington, as well as Portland, Oregon and Boise, Idaho.

Beacon is the largest publicly traded distributor of roofing and complementary building products in the United States and Canada.  It was founded in 1928.

Atlas’ owners, Jan Siers and John Ittes, are retiring. However, the company will continue to be led by Atlas’ Tony Mazza, Todd Bennett, Jessica McIntosh and TJ Cheney.

Beacon said the acquisition enables it to serve customers along the entire West Coast and a portion of the Southwest, while strengthening its sealant, coatings and waterproofing business.
