Tremco Continued from page 28 “Our commitment to the envi- ronment and to practicing what we preach doesn’t stop there,” Sheehy said. “Our corporate head office was retrofitted in 2011, tak- ing a 40 year old building and turn- ing it into a LEED Gold facility with only two per cent of the , recycling 98% of all original materials.” Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance is part of the RPM Building Solution Group (RPM BSG) and “together are global sus- tainability leaders and who, as part of its corporate mandate, must consider people, planet and pros- perity in all our business deci- sions,” Sheehy said.

Two semi- nars qualified for Ontario Association of Architects (OAA) credits and the Realities of Reroofing a Vege- tated Roof seminar also qualified for Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI) credits. ROOFTech committee chair Peter Serino says feedback has been incredibly positive and enthusi- astic and he thanks everyone – attendees, exhibitors, presenters and organizers – for making the event such a success. He said the Toronto experience may have planted a seed for future organizers to continue with a venue outside the core. “The outdoor demonstrations were such a hit and even though the weather didn’t co-op- erate as well on day two, they were so well received and talked about, this is certainly something we’ll want to see continue.” Brunet says ROOFTech keeps the industry strong. “Roofing has become less labour-oriented and on the commercial side, is more technology influ- enced,” he said. “One of the fastest growing aspects is green technologies. Shows like this give attendees the in- formation and visual demonstrations they need to succeed and once again these elements were very popular.” The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Spring 2013 – 29
