New Foam Depot Location Opens in New Orleans
New Orleans, LA (June 23, 2010) - Coatings & Foam Solutions, LLC announces the opening of its first “Foam Depot” location in the New Orleans market. Located at 5600 Jefferson Hwy in Harahan, Louisiana, the Foam Depot concept is more of a retail center designed to service all the needs of the SPF (spray polyurethane foam) insulation applicator. The New Orleans market is the first in a series of planned locations and will hold its “Grand Opening” on June 24th at the facility.
“This will revolutionize the foam insulation industry,” says, Jim Koch, V P of Sales, “We will be offering convenient, in-person, one-stop shopping for the foam contractor. Spray foam from BASF, Bayer, Burtin Polymer Labs, and Wall-Tek will be stocked….and the Roof-Tek® line of protective elastomeric coatings will be available as well.”
In addition to the primary production materials required by the contractor, Graco’s line of performance spray equipment and accessories will be stocked. Personal protection equipment (PPE), such as respirators, face shields, coveralls, and gloves are stocked for immediate availability. Other cleaners, fluids, tools and application necessities will be available. Training seminars are planned for the future to bring vital and updated application / safety and product information to the contractor.
“As the SPF Industry has evolved and grown, the supply chain needs to improve and adjust accordingly. Foam Depot’s goal is to bring-it-all-together for the SPF applicator under one roof. As seen in the building industry, retail centers can purchase in larger quantities and stock numerous brands. This saves the contractor by offering lower material and freight costs, as well as reducing time spent ordering, waiting for shipping and for individual deliveries”, explains Frank Nestle, Marketing Manager.
“Foam Depot” is a retail division of Coating & Foam Solutions, LLC. - an SPF industry supplier based in Oconomowoc, WI. Soon to be announced are the details for Foam Depot locations in Wisconsin and New York. For more information or directions to the New Orleans facility, call 504-644-4388.
