Innovative Designs Inc. (OTCQB: IVDN) reported record-breaking fiscal first quarter sales results that surpassed the previous year's record performance, marking the company's highest first quarter in history. The achievement is notable given that extreme cold weather across the United States during early 2026 significantly hampered many homebuilding projects that would typically drive insulation product sales.
The company's Insultex House Wrap® product drove the sales growth, with much of the market share gains credited to top-performing sales agent Built Link Solutions, LLC. According to Joseph A. Riccelli Jr., CEO of Innovative Designs, sales results actually eclipsed the 2025 fiscal first quarter despite the arctic blast of cold temperatures that slowed or stopped new building projects during the last month of the quarter.
Built Link Solutions will continue its marketing efforts with a fully dedicated Insultex House Wrap® exhibit and in-person presentations at multiple key homebuilding expositions in 2026. The upcoming events include the NAHAB International Builders Show in Orlando, FL (February 17-19, 2026), LBM Advantage Buying Show in Nashville, TN (March 2-4, 2026), LMC Annual Buyers Event in Chicago, IL (March 10-12, 2026), and Atlantic Builders Convention in Atlantic City, NJ (March 24-26, 2026).
Randy Kimbler, Director of Business Development for Built Link Solutions, noted that Insultex House Wrap® is receiving exceptionally strong commercial response across the United States. The company is expanding its 2026 marketing program to directly meet more building professionals and introduce them to the product's advantages for energy efficiency, cost effectiveness, and compliance with new building codes.

The product's growing importance stems from its ability to meet or exceed new government building codes specifying continuous insulation and exterior R-Value requirements. For new construction, the patented evacuated cell Insultex House Wrap® adds an R-6 moisture barrier membrane that doesn't require additional insulation boards or other support typically needed with competitive products. This makes it a compelling choice in today's market where energy efficiency regulations are becoming increasingly stringent.
Innovative Designs is working closely with Built Link Solutions to continue the path of record sales growth and prepare for greater acceleration ahead. The company anticipates filing its official 2026 fiscal first quarter financial report by March 15th, confirming the record sales performance. The continued profitability extending for six trailing quarters indicates sustained market acceptance of the company's insulation technology.
The significance of this announcement extends beyond corporate financial performance to broader industry implications. As building codes evolve to require higher energy efficiency standards, products like Insultex House Wrap® that simplify compliance while maintaining performance become increasingly valuable to builders and homeowners alike. The company's ability to achieve record sales despite weather-related construction slowdowns suggests strong underlying demand for effective insulation solutions that meet regulatory requirements without complicating construction processes.
For investors and industry observers, the company's sustained profitability and planned production increases to meet rising product demand signal a maturing market position. The extensive expo schedule for 2026 represents a strategic effort to maintain momentum and expand market penetration through direct engagement with building professionals at key industry events nationwide.
