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.
Ask your teammates, employers, and manufacturer representatives
that they join Margaret Chewning and Rick Rivin in the CDT Fundamentals
Prep classes. Through CSI’s Certification Program, you can

process and concrete skills in Construction documentation development
and administration, Specification writing and enforcement, Product
research and sourcing, and Communication with the design and contracting
teams.
