AGY Glass Fiber Reinforces Serge Ferrari Membrane for Tropicana Field Roof
What happened
AGY's specialty glass fiber yarn serves as the base reinforcement for the Tenseo Xtrem GF 7000 composite membrane manufactured by Serge Ferrari Group. This membrane covers the new roof at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, replacing a structure destroyed by Hurricane Milton in October 2024. The completion of the roof allowed the Tampa Bay Rays to return to Tropicana Field for the 2026 Major League Baseball season.
