Skip MacLean of TruTech Doors, Fenestration Canada’s first vice-president, says the association looks forward to continued enthusiasm at the national WIN- DOOR 2013 show and conference in November in Toronto. “The enthusiasm is certainly there so we want to keep that momentum going, set programs sooner and advertise earlier.” MacLean says a members’ poll indicates a strong interest on the industry’s technical aspects so the show will continue its strong focus on education, code dissemination and energy savings and marketing programs such as Energy Star..
