PATK

Patrick Industries, Inc.

A maker of interior and exterior components for recreational vehicles, boats, and manufactured homes — cabinet doors, countertops, flooring, fiberglass showers, aluminum sidewalls, and roofing membranes. It began in 1959 when Mervin D. Lung started wholesaling surplus wood paneling and trim to fellow remodelers out of a barn in Elkhart, Indiana, before growing into a major supplier to the RV and housing industries. The company incorporated in 1961 and went public in 1968.
