Thank you to all who attended CRRC's 2026 Annual Conference in San Antonio, TX! We had a record number of new attendees this year, which led to inspired conversations during our breakout sessions between CRRC member veterans and new member voices. We value all of your participation!
Thank you so much to our guest speakers who presented educational sessions at the Member Meeting: Dr. Larry Kalkstein, President of Applied Climatologists; Tim Hebrink, Corporate Scientist for 3M Corporate Research Process Lab; and Jake Medley, Executive Director of the Louisville, Kentucky Mayor’s Office of Sustainability.

The CRRC Annual Meeting has officially been renamed the CRRC Annual Conference! The event's new name reflects the transition to a three-day event that we piloted in 2024 and our aim is to make this the premier gathering of professionals engaged in the cool surfaces arena. The event includes the CRRC Member Meeting, Committee Day, and Board Meeting. CRRC Members and non-members are invited to attend, with one ticket granting access to all three days.
The CRRC Member Meeting (day one of the Annual Conference) is a yearly tradition where the CRRC community comes together to hear about the latest industry research and CRRC activities; provide input on direction and cast votes for the Board of Directors; and socialize with fellow CRRC stakeholders and staff. The meeting is open to both CRRC Members and non-members.
The Member Meeting also consists of a series of guest speaker presentations, which provide attendees with timely, accurate, and valuable information relevant to reflective building materials, with all viewpoints on cool roofs and cool exterior walls accepted. Technical information is supported by scientifically rigorous studies and presentations do not serve as a platform for advertising or promoting certain products or services.
