Design North Supply, established in 2020, brings a specialized focus on UPC spray foam, polyurea, and protective coatings to IDI’s operations. By absorbing the Montana and Anchorage-based distributor, IDI gains a foothold in regions previously difficult to serve, while current Design North clients retain their local contacts. The transition promises access to IDI’s wider inventory, which includes fiberglass, mineral wool, and cellulose insulation.

Chris Novogratz, President of IDI, pointed to the rapid growth of the Billings firm as a primary driver for the acquisition. For IDI, a family-owned business operating since 1979, the move represents a scaling of its 70-location national footprint. Both companies frame the integration as a cultural alignment, emphasizing shared service values and long-term support for regional contractors.
