What Owens Corning does

Maker of insulation and roofing shingles, plus exterior doors after acquiring Masonite in 2024.

Sells through building-products distributors and home-center chains to roofing contractors, insulation installers and builders, so sales follow new housing starts and, increasingly, repair and re-roofing driven by weather such as hail and hurricanes. The 2024 purchase of Masonite added residential doors. It also makes glass fiber used in composite materials.
