Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope (OBE) is making a major move to expand its position in the commercial building envelope market. Effective September 8, 2026, four of the industry’s leading independent representative agencies will join the OBE network across the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Carolinas, dramatically expanding OBE’s market presence and putting its complete building envelope portfolio in front of more customers than ever before.

The new agencies are not coming in to sell just one piece of the building envelope. They’re getting the full portfolio.

“This significant move for Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope is another example of how we intend to continue leading this industry,” said Mark Adamson, Chief Executive Officer, Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope. “We didn’t simply add coverage, we added proven industry leaders. We know these teams. We know the relationships they’ve built. And we know what becomes possible when we combine that local strength with OBE’s proven scale and full portfolio. That’s a powerful combination and we’re just getting started.”

It’s about putting more power behind proven players.

Through CRL, Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope, Graham Architectural Products and U.S. Aluminum, these agencies will now bring customers solutions spanning architectural glass, metal systems, windows, railing systems, and architectural hardware backed by OBE’s national scale, manufacturing capabilities, distribution network, and industry expertise.

For OBE, the expansion is part of a larger strategy of making the company easier to buy from and harder to compete with by creating an even more dominant presence as a one-stop shop.

Now representing Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope:

  • MJD Associates of CNY, Inc. — New York, excluding New York City and Long Island

  • PACE Building Envelope Representatives — Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont

  • TSC Associates — Washington, D.C., Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia

  • WCJ Sales — North Carolina and South Carolina

These aren’t new names in the industry. They’re established teams with decades of experience, strong customer relationships, and deep knowledge of the markets they serve. What’s new is the firepower behind them. OBE is putting a significantly broader portfolio behind that existing strength, giving them more opportunities to win.

“This is a huge opportunity for our team and, more importantly, for our customers,” said Philip Blair, President of MJD Associates of CNY Inc. “We have been in this market for over three decades. We are a trusted source for architects and glazing contractors, and now we get to bring them significantly more. Having CRL, OBE, Graham Architectural Products, and U.S. Aluminum together gives us a portfolio that can cover the complete fenestration package of a project through one relationship, one phone call, and we’re ready to put that to work for our customers.”

The expansion is backed by continued OBE investment in manufacturing capacity, operational capabilities, inventory, and customer support, giving its representatives the resources to pursue more opportunities while continuing to deliver for existing customers.

“We intend to compete for more of the project, more of the customer relationship, and more of the market. OBE is bringing together architectural glass, metal systems, windows, and hardware into one powerful offering backed by the scale, footprint, and expertise to deliver,” said Eric Kowalewski, Chief Commercial Officer, Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope. “The industry doesn’t need more suppliers. It needs true business partners.”
