History

CSL Materials was established in 2011 as the exclusive Carlisle SynTec Representative in North Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. After succeeding in these markets, CSL Materials expanded operations and created CSL West, the exclusive Carlisle SynTec Representative in Colorado, in 2014.

CSL has continually expanded our offerings and partnered with additional premier construction manufacturers to increase our ability to impact customers. Additionally, we have increased personnel in all four states. The result: over 300% growth, exponentially increased market share, and strong partnerships with our distributors and contractors.

Mission Statement

The CSL mission is to establish value for our customers by offering unrivaled service, comprehensive industry and product knowledge, and continual customer support while educating our respective markets about the innovative products of our manufacturing partners. 

Why CSL Materials?

As an independent representative of numerous construction products in multiple states, we must operate as the experts on each of our manufacturers and their product offerings. Our comprehensive knowledge of products, systems, and services allows us to properly convey their assets to each market efficiently and precisely.

Many companies in the construction industry are consumed with pricing and solely scrutinize material costs when making their decisions. While CSL will always work diligently to ensure pricing is competitive, we recognize there is more to a product or service than the unit cost. Currently, the construction industry is facing a significant quality labor shortage, and finding ways that companies can complete jobs faster and better can be a tremendous help. Our method of collaborating with customers and prospective customers to discern the specific needs of their business allows us to pinpoint the products and services that best enhance their operations. 

Most importantly, we offer products that cover the entire building envelope. This offering makes CSL a true asset to architects and consultants as we can be a “one-stop shop” for these specifiers. Additionally, CSL’s ability to interface with architects and consultants on an entire building (roofing, waterproofing, metal edge, and underlayments) benefits the contractor. We will work to ensure a cohesive experience with the coordination of projects, facilitate intercommunication and provide valuable information and insight to ensure a smooth and successful project for all involved.

With over 75 years of combined industry experience and expertly trained employees, CSL is the premium construction materials partner. We have hundreds of solutions to meet any challenge and the professional acumen to benefit our customers significantly.
