November 2011

What a great presentation by Steve Alley of Sika/Sarnafil on “The Facts about PVC and The Environment “last month! There were lots of questions from the audience and answers to much misinformation on the uses of PVC. This month’s meeting, a webinar from Interface/FLOR, the leader in sustainable manufacturing, will discuss Life Cycle Assessment and its impact on specifications.

Ray Anderson, the late CEO of InterfaceFLOR, used lessons learned from William McDonough and Michael Braungart to completely restructure his firm into a worldwide leader in LCA.

Thanks to our board for their dedication to growing the chapter activities and membership with their creative ideas (Upcoming Product Show and Seminars) with the new 50/50 membership drive at the Feb.7, 2012.
