Nation’s Largest Roofing Company Encourages Industry
to Remember Its Greens At Lunchtime
Skokie, IL., October 31, 2006 — Tecta America Corp., [GreenBuild Booth #2212] the nation’s largest commercial roofing company, is pleased to announce its TectaGreen Lunch & Learn green roof program available to architects, builders, general contractors and other related industry experts. Lunch is provided onsite by Tecta America during the hour-long informal presentation, which can cover material as general as what green roofs are and how they work, to complex issues involving LEED points.
The TectaGreen Lunch & Learn highlights the different types of green roofs, including comparisons between modular and traditional green roofs, and focuses on recent green roof installations, the various issues involved, and multiple benefits provided. Presentation content is customized based on the knowledge level of the audience.
“Tecta America is one of only a few roofing contractors in the nation that can install every component of a green roof including the soil media and vegetation, so response to the Lunch & Learn seminars has been great. Especially in Cincinnati where a new tax abatement was passed for certain green building construction,” said Joe Summers, Regional Sales Coordinator for Louisville, KY-based The Zero Company, a Tecta America Company.
“Green roofing is the buzz word in every architectural firm. Everybody wants one but they don't know how much it costs or how to assemble it properly. This is where Tecta America can be a big help. It's a great feeling to know that your company is the leading authority in something that is so good for the environment,” Summers continued.
In fact, so great is the interest in green roofs, that in a recent three-part series of similar TectaGreen presentations hosted at the Chicago Center for Green Technology, each presentation was attended by a standing room only crowd, ten times the number typical for other Green Tech University seminars.
