History

Kirby Fiberglass was founded in 1946 by H.R. Kirby, Sr. Prior to the establishment of Kirby Fiberglass, Mr. Kirby, Sr., was one of the original employees of Owens-Corning Fiberglass Corp. His expertise in the production and use of glass fiber is the cornerstone for the success of Kirby Fiberglass, Inc. Mr. Kirby, Sr. has devoted a lifetime to the development and application of quality glass fiber products. Much of his innovation is seen in these glass fiber roofing products.

 Dr. Herbert Kirby, Mr. H.R. Kirby Sr. and Mrs. H.R. Kirby’s
 son, was actively involved in the business in his early high
 school years. After pursuing other careers, and earning
 several degrees including two master degrees and one
 doctorate, he returned to the family business. Dedicating
 himself to growing sales volume he expanded distribution
 nationwide and into Canada. In 1988 he moved the plant
 production from Monrovia CA to its current facility located
 in Pueblo Colorado.

 On January 10^th of 2005 we experienced a great loss when
 Dr. Kirby and Cleve Reeves, a long time friend and
 Maintenance Manager of Kirby Fiberglass, Inc., were both
 killed in a plane crash.
