In this episode of Roofing Road Trips, host Megan Ellsworth is joined by Jordan Loudon, executive director of RICOWI, and Al Janni, chairperson of the organization, to share what's ahead for the RICOWI Spring 2026 Conference happening March 11-12 at the SAFE Convention Center in Sacramento, California. The trio discusses how the conference brings together contractors, consultants, manufacturers and researchers to examine roofing performance and weather-related challenges across the industry. They highlight the seminar sessions, committee meetings and collaborative learning taking place throughout the event, including presentations from IBHS, UL, ICC and more, in addition to the RICOWI Foundation Fundraiser event. Jordan and Albert also explain why RICOWI's research and field documentation efforts are so essential to improving real-world roofing outcomes. For professionals focused on resilience, technical accuracy and long-term system performance, this is a gathering designed to connect knowledge with practice.
