Description: BLDR Builders FirstSource

Builders FirstSource (BLDR) is a U.S. supplier of building materials and value-added components serving professional builders in the new residential construction, repair, and remodeling markets. The company operates a B2B distribution and manufacturing model, selling directly to homebuilders rather than retail DIY consumers, which ties its volumes primarily to U.S. housing starts and residential construction activity.

Its manufactured offerings include factory-built framing components such as wood floor and roof trusses, wall panels, and engineered wood; the Ready-Frame whole-house framing solution; modular and semi-custom homes produced under the Pine Grove Homes and Pleasant Valley Homes brands; windows; and assembled interior and exterior door units. The company also distributes millwork (including the Synboard brand), specialty products such as vinyl, composite and wood siding, roofing, insulation, cabinetry, and hardware, along with commodity dimensional lumber, plywood, and oriented strand board (OSB) used in on-site framing.

Beyond products, Builders FirstSource provides turn-key framing, shell construction, design assistance, professional installation, and pre-construction services including drafting, estimating, and virtual home design. The use of pre-fabricated and panelized building components is a structural feature of the modern U.S. residential building products industry, as it can shorten on-site build cycles and reduce skilled-labor requirements for builders. The company is headquartered in Irving, Texas, was incorporated in 1998, and was formerly known as BSL Holdings, Inc. before adopting its current name in October 1999.
