Weatherization Partners, Ltd. (WPL), Dallas, Tx., proudly announces surpassing $1 billion in lifetime sales since making the decision to solely specialize in DuPont Tyvek weatherization products in 2000. This achievement underscores WPL’s commitment to providing top tier building solutions to the industry.
Founded as Frontier Wholesale in 1949, WPL evolved into a specialized distributor of DuPont Tyvek weatherization products in 2000. Selling its other businesses to focus solely on DuPont Tyvek in 2000 was a bold gamble, especially when total Tyvek sales for WPL were around 2 million for the previous year. Through strategic collaboration with DuPont, a team of knowledgeable professionals, and with a lot of hard work, WPL successfully propelled the Tyvek brand to builders across 12 states.
This June marked a historic milestone, surpassing a billion dollars in lifetime sales for DuPont Tyvek weatherization products since 2000. WPL extends gratitude to its dedicated team, valued partners, and stakeholders for their contributions to this success.
Weatherization Partners is currently celebrating its 75th year as a family-owned business. David Faulkner, President, CEO of WPL, attributes the company’s growth and success to maintaining a focus to manufacturers that produce products focused on the building enclosure. “Most building distributors are multi-line. They carry hundreds of different products, and their sales team must know about every product they carry. WPL carries a short product line, which allows us to be extremely knowledgeable on every part of the building enclosure that integrates with DuPont Tyvek. This enables our team to sell a solutions approach to weather protection that reduces variation of installation.”
WPL is a family business and operates from its distribution center in Dallas covering 12 states.
