Berry is the new owner of Floor Coverings International of Midtown Atlanta serving Buckhead, Druid Hills, Sandy Springs, and Vinings, GA. A Mobile Flooring Showroom, stocked with thousands of flooring samples comes to customers’ doors.

Berry’s business offers in-home design guidance, curated product selections, and project coordination across popular flooring categories such as luxury vinyl, hardwood, laminate, carpet, tile, and more—helping customers compare options in their own space and lighting for more confident decisions.

“After years in careers centered on protecting and supporting others, I wanted to build a business with the same mission—show up prepared, listen carefully, and deliver on what I promise,” said Berry. “Flooring is one of the most visible, high impact upgrades a homeowner can make. My goal is to make the process easier, clearer, and more comfortable from start to finish.

Instead of asking customers to make decisions under store lighting and limited samples, Berry’s team meets clients at home with a mobile showroom, bringing flooring choices to the door. This approach supports better selection, smoother planning, and a more personalized experience—especially for busy homeowners and families.

Across the industry, homeowners continue to look for floors that balance beauty, durability, and ease of care. Waterproof laminate and luxury vinyl products remain especially popular for active households with children and pets, offering the appearance of natural wood or stone with simple cleanup. Engineered hardwood continues to appeal to those seeking a more upscale finish, while carpet remains a favorite for consumers who want softness, warmth, and comfort, particularly in updated flat-pile, textured and patterned styles. Sustainable flooring products made with eco-friendly materials are also drawing interest from buyers who want attractive options with a lighter environmental footprint.

Berry’s background includes service overseas in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Uzbekistan and Djibouti in support of U.S. Armed Forces. He also served as a local firefighter/EMT and holds a bachelor’s degree in human services and a master’s in cyber diplomacy. Previously, he was a co-owner of a non-medical home care agency, building a solid foundation in customer care, operations, and trust-based service.

As a black, veteran-owned local business, Berry says his company is committed to professionalism, responsiveness, and delivering elevated customer experience.

As West Coast Architect Fees Soar, Sierra Log and Timber Disrupts Custom Home Market with $950 Flat-Rate 3D Drafting Solution

CHICO, Calif., June 10, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — With West Coast architectural fees climbing to historic highs, standard residential design services are rapidly becoming cost-prohibitive for middle-class homebuilders. In a direct bid to dismantle this financial bottleneck, California-based manufacturer Sierra Log and Timber today announced the rollout of a flat-rate $950 custom 3D architectural drafting program available across its digital footprint at loghomefloorplans.shop.

Sierra Log and Timber LLC Model ADU1200/1670 ADU
Image caption: Model ADU1200/1670. A Red Cedar 6×10 timber design using the Smart Build Bonus System for the roof system enabling a 470 sq ft bonus room area. 1200 sq ft footprint with a 470 sq ft bonus loft = 1670 sq ft.

Traditionally, custom home planning requires a major upfront financial gamble. Standard regional architecture firms routinely charge between 8% to 15% of total projected construction costs—or demand $5,000 to $15,000 upfront – just to produce initial concept layout sketches. This financial barrier has left thousands of Western property owners locked out of the market, paralyzed by high interest rates and the fear of the unknown before they can even secure accurate local builder estimates.

“The traditional home design process is fundamentally broken for today’s economy,” said Larry Trimboli, founder of Sierra Log and Timber. “Homeowners shouldn’t have to risk $10,000 of their savings just to see if a house layout will fit their land or their budget. By utilizing our direct-from-the-mill digital drafting system, we are absorbing that upfront financial risk for our clients. For $950, we give them a hyper-realistic, code-viable 3D model that acts as their financial shield against construction cost inflation.”

Sierra Log and Timber’s new programmatic release completely rewrites the pre-construction timeline. For a flat fee of $950, property owners can submit their custom home ideas, site parameters, or raw sketches to an in-house drafting team. The company then develops a complete, fully customized 3D architectural study set from scratch, tailored perfectly to the client’s specific acreage or suburban parcel.

Crucially, these custom 3D design sets give buyers the exact asset they need to break the market freeze: total cost certainty. Instead of guessing at material and trade costs, clients can take their finished 3D study sets directly to local general contractors, subcontractors, and construction lenders to secure guaranteed, itemized bids before committing to a major long-term loan.

The flat-rate custom 3D design program is optimized specifically for the company’s core Western footprint, covering California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Colorado, and Montana. The program applies seamlessly across Sierra Log & Timber’s extensive engineering categories, including its premium solid Red Cedar log packages, modern heavy-timber frames, barndominiums, and the newly launched ADU 750 fee-exempt secondary dwelling series.

To ensure complete design flexibility, the flat rate includes full architectural revisions of windows, doors, interior partition walls, and rooflines to match local county zoning, snow load, and wind engineering requirements.

Property owners looking to bypass traditional architectural markups and lock down real pre-construction numbers can claim a custom 3D drafting slot directly at: https://loghomefloorplans.shop/.

ABOUT SIERRA LOG AND TIMBER:

Based in Chico, California, Sierra Log and Timber is a premier manufacturer of mill-direct solid Red Cedar log homes, cabins, barndominiums, and accessory dwelling units (ADUs), providing premium structural packages and advanced 3D digital drafting services nationwide.

KR WPC Launches ASA/PVC Co-Extruded WPC Line for High-Performance Outdoor Applications

Designed for commercial decks, cladding, and fencing in harsh climates, KR WPC's ASA/PVC co-extruded composites pair UV-and weather-resistant ASA capstock with a dimensionally stable PVC core - addressing the performance gaps that humble conventional WPC in demanding outdoor environments

XUANCHENG, China, May 4, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — As demand for durable, low-maintenance outdoor materials intensifies across commercial and residential construction, KR New Materials Co., Ltd. (KR WPC) is expanding its product portfolio with a new line of ASA/PVC co-extruded wood-plastic composite (WPC) solutions. The new range targets architects, landscape designers, contractors, and international distributors seeking outdoor materials that combine long-term weather resistance, structural stability, and minimal upkeep – without compromising on aesthetics.

ASA/PVC co-extruded WPC decking installation - high-resolution outdoor shot
Image caption: ASA/PVC co-extruded WPC decking installation – high-resolution outdoor shot.

Conventional WPC, while superior to natural timber in moisture and decay resistance, still carries a vulnerability rooted in its composition: wood fiber near the surface can absorb water over time, triggering microcracking, swelling, and gradual surface degradation in high-exposure installations. KR WPC’s ASA/PVC co-extruded approach addresses this at the structural level.

A Smarter Layered Architecture

Co-extrusion fuses two or more material layers during manufacturing – not glued on after the fact. In KR WPC’s new system, an ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) capstock forms the exposed outer surface, while a PVC-based core provides dimensional stability and moisture resistance underneath.

ASA is widely used in exterior plastic applications precisely because it resists UV degradation and weathering more effectively than many alternative thermoplastics – properties that make it a preferred material for window profiles, exterior cladding, and other high-exposure building components. When used as a cap layer in WPC, ASA absorbs the environmental stress that would otherwise act directly on the wood-polymer interior.

PVC, as the structural core, brings low moisture uptake and strong dimensional behavior – reducing the risk of warping, swelling, or gap formation over seasonal cycles. The result is a board that performs in fundamentally different conditions than standard single-body WPC: less surface fatigue, fewer maintenance interventions, and better retention of color and texture over time.

Weather Resistance in Practice

Outdoor weathering is rarely dramatic – it accumulates. Repeated UV exposure dulls surfaces; wet-dry cycles stress microstructures; grime bakes in rather than washing off. These processes don’t produce immediate failure, but they shorten the functional lifespan of lesser materials and drive-up cleaning and repair costs.

KR WPC’s ASA/PVC co-extruded boards are engineered to slow this trajectory. The ASA cap acts as a barrier layer, reducing water ingress into the core and limiting UV exposure to the wood-polymer interior. Field and laboratory evaluation work referenced in the broader exterior plastics sector supports the principle that a properly specified cap layer helps keep composite cores drier and less prone to surface weathering – a consideration that becomes particularly relevant in high-humidity climates, coastal installations, and commercial settings where downtime for maintenance is costly.

Durability and Maintenance Realities

“Low maintenance” claims in the outdoor materials space require scrutiny. The more accurate promise with co-extruded WPC is this: owners avoid the seasonal staining, sealing, and surface restoration cycles associated with natural timber. Day-to-day care is limited to sweeping and periodic washing with mild cleaners – provided spills are addressed within a reasonable window rather than left to set.

ASA capstock is positioned in the market as a hard-wearing exterior surface, and product data published by manufacturers of ASA-capped systems includes abrasion and hardness metrics that support durability claims in commercial use cases. For rooftop bars, pool surrounds, restaurant terraces, and public walkways – environments where surface failure becomes a maintenance line item – these characteristics carry direct operational significance.

Design Flexibility for Coordinated Projects

With the performance layer handled, design flexibility becomes a practical advantage. KR WPC’s co-extruded WPC is available across a broad color range, with embossed wood-grain, brushed, and smoother architectural textures. Importantly, the company supports color and texture matching across its decking, cladding, and fencing lines – a capability that matters for projects where multiple outdoor surfaces need to read as a cohesive system rather than a collection of unrelated materials.

Physical samples, technical documentation, and customization options – including color, texture, size, packaging, and branding – are available through KR WPC’s B2B sales and specification support process.

Commercial Procurement Discipline

KR WPC notes that customers specifying ASA/PVC co-extruded products should request cross-section verification, material breakdown documentation (capstock resin and core resin specifications), and third-party test reports as part of the submittal process. This aligns with broader industry practice of treating documentation readiness as a procurement requirement, particularly for international projects where material specifications are scrutinized at multiple stages.

Experts weigh in on the second Rystad Study, indicating that proppant type is the likely answer for accelerated shale well productivity declines

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Rystad Study, by Rystad Energy, one of North America's most respected energy research firms, focuses on the proppant type used in approximately 900 shale wells in the Permian basin in West Texas. The study compares wells completed using in-basin sand (IBS) with wells completed with northern white sand (NWS), says the Wisconsin Industrial Sand Association (WISA).

Although In-Basin Sand proppants dominate the Permian Market, the study's results indicate that in both the long and short term, most wells would deliver higher productivity using Northern White Sand proppant.

This Rystad Study is the second to examine productivity vs proppant type. It analyses three years of historical data from approximately 900 West Texas Permian Basin shale wells. This latest Rystad Study shows that in 85% of the cases, the short-term cost benefits of completing wells with IBS were lost within the first year when productivity began diverging significantly each year.

Penny Aschenbrenner of Material Spec Labs, which specializes in sand testing, said, "The physical properties of IBS and NWS proppants provide a logical explanation for the difference in production." Material Spec Labs uses API (American Petroleum Institute) testing methods to test frac sand for its customers. "Our job is to test the sand for the physical properties the customer is paying for," said Aschenbrenner. "The idea isn't new. It's sometimes difficult to conceptualize proppant properties and their functionality due to the foreign nature of micro measurements. But if we relate the problem to something we are familiar with, the answer is obvious." she said.

She was not surprised by the negative impact of IBS on wells and questioned whether any technically capable engineer would be either, "The science is pretty simple," she said, "the sand is exposed to extreme pressures and conditions in a well. It is easy to see that the lower-strength sand will crush and clog a well much sooner than a higher-quality proppant. That's what you see in the lab, and it's most likely happening downhole."

NWS became the proppant of choice when the shale revolution began because of its high strength and purity. NWS is a very round, very hard silica sand used to prop open the fractures induced by hydraulic fracturing. Hydraulic fracturing uses water, sand, and chemicals to fracture shale rock deep beneath the earth's surface. When the fracturing is finished, the liquids are returned to the surface, and the sand remains in place to keep the fractures "propped" open, which is why the sand is called a "proppant."

The Rystad study calls the industry's most recent choices into question. By adopting IBS, It's possible that executives did the right thing at the time for their stakeholders. When oil and gas prices plummeted, producers had already spent significant cash on growing production, with many outspending their cash flow by completing more wells than needed. This ultimately led to overproduction and caused prices to crash heading into the pandemic. By the time Covid hit and prices crashed, producers were running out of cash and perhaps considering bankruptcy. Their only option was reducing costs; IBS was an obvious, short-term solution.

So while IBS may have been a company-saving strategy, its use carried an unforeseen expense. As illustrated in the Rystad study findings, those companies, shareholders, mineral rights holders, and U.S. energy security, in general, are now experiencing decreased well productivity and longevity. Despite the early belief that production would stay the same, according to the production data in the Rystad Study, wells completed with IBS now reveal accelerated economic losses in the hundreds of thousands of dollars per well after only a few short years compared to wells completed with NWS. Those losses grow more significant as oil and gas prices increase.

The Rystad Study supports the observation that switching to IBS correlates with accelerating decline rates. It suggests serious consideration of the science and reconsidering of the proppant decision choices. Higher energy prices and demand, the ongoing interest in energy independence, and safety and environmental considerations mandate that oil and gas wells run optimally. Mineral rights holders, energy investors, landowners, and energy workers have significant vested economic interests.

Energy Industry Experts Weigh in On Latest Rystad Energy shale well study indicating potential answer for accelerated productivity declines

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. /ScoopCloud/ -- Rystad Energy, one of North America's most respected energy research firms, recently completed a second study of nearly 900 shale wells in the Permian basin in West Texas. The study compares wells completed using in-basin sand (IBS) with wells completed with northern white sand (NWS), says the Wisconsin Industrial Sand Association (WISA).

Although In-Basin Sand dominates the Permian Market, the study's results suggest that even in the short term, the majority of wells would deliver higher productivity using Northern White Sand.

The study, the second in a series, examines three years of historical data obtained from nearly 900 West Texas Permian Basin shale wells. The latest Rystad Study shows that in 85% of the cases studied, the short-term cash benefits of completing wells with IBS were negated within the first year or two, with the productivity divergence growing yearly.

Penny Aschenbrenner of Material Spec Labs, which specializes in sand testing, said, "The physical properties of IBS and NWS proppants provide a logical explanation for the difference in production."

Material Spec Labs uses API (American Petroleum Institute) testing methods to test frac sand for its customers.

"Our job is to test the sand for the physical properties the customer is paying for," says Aschenbrenner. She states, "The concept isn't new. It's sometimes difficult to conceptualize proppant properties and their functionality due to the foreign nature of micro measurements. But if we relate the problem to something we are familiar with, the answer is obvious."

Ashenbrenner was not surprised by the negative impact of IBS on the wells and questioned whether any technically capable engineer would be either, "The science is pretty simple," Ashenbrenner states, "the sand is exposed to extreme pressures and conditions in a well. It is easy to see that the lower-strength sand will crush and possibly clog a well much sooner than a higher-quality proppant. That's what you see in the lab, and it's highly probable that it's happening downhole."

NWS became widely used when the shale revolution began because of its high strength, high purity, and very round silica sand was used to prop open the fractures induced by the hydraulic fracturing process. Hydraulic fracturing uses water, sand, and chemicals to fracture shale rock deep beneath the earth's surface. Once the fracturing has occurred, the fluids are returned to the surface, and the sand remains to keep the fractures "propped" open, which is why the industry terms the sand: "proppant."

The Rystad study challenges the industry's most recent choices. Executives probably did the right thing at the right time for their stakeholders by adapting IBS. When oil and gas prices plummeted, producers had already spent their cash on growing production, with many outspending their cash flow by completing more wells than needed. This ultimately led to overproduction and caused prices to crash heading into the pandemic. By the time Covid hit, and prices crashed, many producers were running out of cash, perhaps staring down bankruptcy. Their only option was to reduce costs, and using IBS was an obvious, short-term solution.

IBS may have been a company-saving strategy, but its use carried an unforeseen long-term expense. As illustrated in the Rystad findings, decreased well productivity and longevity are now being felt by those companies, their shareholders, the mineral rights holders, and possibly, U.S. energy security in general. Despite the early indication that production would stay the same, according to the production data studied by Rystad, wells completed with IBS now reveal accelerated economic losses in the hundreds of thousands of dollars per well after only a few short years compared to wells completed with NWS. That spread only grows more significant as oil and gas prices increase.

Other explanations abound. Some industry CEO's are now blaming the rock quality itself for accelerating declines in the past few years. Others fall back on well proximity, sometimes called the "Parent/Child" effect. The Rystad Study supports the observation that switching to IBS is highly correlated with accelerating decline rates.

The Rystad study suggests serious consideration of the science, and a revisit to the proppant decision choices. Higher energy prices and demand, the ongoing interest in energy independence, and safety and environmental considerations mandate that oil and gas wells run optimally. Mineral rights holders, energy investors, landowners, and energy workers have significant vested economic interests.

Ninety years later, Chase Doors is the world's oldest, largest, and most progressive manufacturer of double-acting impact traffic doors and specialty doors. Chase Doors is part of the Senneca Holdings family of brands.

To celebrate this milestone, the National Archives has officially designated September 28 as National Traffic Door Day. This day will celebrate Chase and Eliason traffic doors and the businesses that use them to keep customers and employees safe.

Traffic doors create an efficient traffic flow in restaurants, retail and industrial spaces and help provide peace, tranquility, and a stylish separation solution where folks dine and shop so they can enjoy the environment and company around them. They add value and efficiency to applications with multi-directional openings where visual, sound, and environmental barriers are required. These doors are extremely durable and capable of withstanding the wear and tear associated with sales-to-back room and walk-in cooler openings in high volume establishments. Known for their long-term value, they are ideal for use in supermarkets, retail establishments, institutions, industries, restaurants, and food service operations.

You can celebrate this day by taking a selfie in front of a traffic door at your favorite restaurant, retail store, etc., and posting to social media platforms, using #NationalTrafficDoorDay.

At Chase and Eliason, safety is number one. Please be sure to follow all safety protocols when capturing your selfie. You can also support restaurants and businesses that have traffic doors at their locations and thank the service industry individuals that use our doors.

Thank you to all our employees and industry partners on achieving this significant milestone," said Hal Shapiro, SVP, Sales and Marketing.

"We are proud to be the industry leader of traffic door solutions for our customers for 90 years. Protecting our customer's assets by providing top quality products is a top priority at Chase/Eliason.

"I have had the honor of representing the Chase/ Senneca products for thirty-five plus years. This company has always represented not only great products, but great people!" said Glenn Oltmanns, Senior Vice President, OEM Account Sales.

"Chase Doors is observing 90 years of great customers, people, and products. Without having the best of all three we would not have had the longevity that we celebrate.

Fontana Paper Mills Adds a New Product to The Family

FONTANA, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Fontana Paper Mills is proud to announce a new 6% + SBS modified multipurpose underlayment, otherwise known as M40. It has an organic core with a 6% + SBS modified asphalt coating and Fontana's familiar high grip surface.

M40 is similar to our G40 but has the advantage of availability, price, enhanced flexibility while preserving the weather-ability, and extended life of a modified asphalt. M40 carries the Fontana Premium Leak warranty when applied in accordance with the enhanced provisions of the TRI moderate climate specifications by a TRI certified roofing contractor.

"M40 is a special product because Fontana is able to control the quality of the asphalt viscosity and the melting point. By controlling all aspects of M40's manufacturing process M40 is more flexible. A more flexible product makes the roofers job easier. Roofers have found they have less product break while installing M40 and it does cold bends very well," stated George Thagard, President of Fontana Paper Mills.

"M40 also has increased longevity because it is not as sensitive to UV as other underlayments are; thus it doesn't break down as quickly. M40 also has superior nail sealing ability which will decrease the risk of roof leakage due to installation."

M40 is also a more affordable product. Fontana, as a manufacturer, is able to keep the costs low while maintaining their high quality underlayment standards, which makes the product more affordable for the roofer.

About Fontana Paper Mills:

Fontana Paper Mills is a roofing underlayment manufacturing plant located on 15 acres in Fontana, California. It was started by George Thagard III, Jeff Thagard and Ray Thagard Jr. in 1987. Fontana produces well known products such as Vulca Seal G40, Vulca Seal Organic base 40#, 30# and many others. Their newest member of the product family is Vulca Seal M40.

Move For Hunger and Chadwell Supply Renew Their Partnership and Provide 200,000 Meals to Those In Need

RED BANK, N.J. /ScoopCloud/ -- Chadwell Supply, a trusted Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) source of supplies and flooring for multi-family properties, and Move For Hunger, a national hunger relief non-profit organization, announced the renewing of their partnership and commitment to the fight against hunger.

This is the second year of partnership that has helped provide nearly 200,000 meals to those in need. In addition, Chadwell Supply also recently hosted its own food drive at seven of its locations across the country in Virginia, Texas, North Carolina, Missouri, and Florida to support their efforts to fight hunger and food waste. Each of the locations' food was transported to a food bank in the local area.

Hunger impacts every community and every state. Forty-two million Americans, including 1 in 6 kids, struggle with food insecurity, an increase of 5 million people since the start of the pandemic.

Move For Hunger has the unique ability to coordinate nationwide food drives and food rescues through its network of 1,000+ movers and transportation partners in all 50 states and in Canada. Since 2009, Move For Hunger's network has transported more than 24 million pounds of food - the equivalent of 20 million meals. It's through the support of partners like Chadwell Supply that Move For Hunger can continue to expand its impact by launching a new fresh food program.

The program focuses on recovering fresh produce, meat, and more from farms and food manufacturers and then deliver it to local food banks. In its first season, the fresh food program has delivered 400,000 meals.

Move For Hunger also continues to expand its reach in the multi-family industry partnering with over 2,500 properties nationwide. Properties collect unused, perfectly good food when residents move out and also host community food drives to support their neighbors in need. Move For Hunger's multi-family network is having a record year by already collecting more than 100,000 pounds of food (83,000 meals).

"Chadwell Supply is proud to support the important role our customer companies serve in the lives of their resident families," says Pete Wheeler, VP of Marketing and Sales Enablement.

Capital Industrial Shares the Benefits of Sealing Concrete Floors

MATTITUCK, N.Y. /ScoopCloud/ -- Capital Industries, a leader in industrial concrete repair products, has released a tip sheet on how concrete floor coatings benefit commercial businesses.

Repore urethane concrete sealer is a one-step system made up of moisture-cured urethane. It is typically applied to the surface of concrete floors to create a moisture, chemical, and abrasion-resistant coating for your flooring. This product provides various benefits that make it one of the most beneficial things property owners can utilize on their floors.

The benefits of sealing concrete floors are plentiful and can help industrial businesses in the long run. Here are four reasons why it is beneficial to seal concrete floors in industrial buildings.

1. Sealing concrete floors in industrial buildings can protect them from harsh chemicals and cleaners.

Sealing concrete floors in industrial buildings can help to protect them from harsh chemicals and cleaners. Applying a sealant is very important because the lifespan of a non-sealed floor can shorten the lifespan by the chemical used.

Repore floor sealant is also popular for sealing warehouse floors, factory floors, and even commercial kitchen floors. It can be a much more cost-effective solution than digging up the floor and replacing it with something else. A recent study has shown that the average cost of replacing a floor is around $10,000, whereas sealing the floor is much less. Companies should consider these benefits before deciding whether to seal the floors.

2. Help the floor last longer to increase its lifespan.

Sealing a concrete floor improves durability by protecting it from cracks and stains. The most common type of sealer used is called a urethane sealer. These sealers offer moderate protection against staining and wear.

3. Improve the safety of working conditions for employees in the industrial building.

Concrete is a building material that, if left unsealed, can cause major slip hazards for workers. The spills created are also a safety hazard because they create a slip hazard as well. However, sealing the concrete floor will reduce the risks for workers.

Seal concrete floors at any point after pouring them. It helps keep the concrete from becoming slippery and spilling onto the floor, creating more hazards for employees.

4. Reduce the costs associated with repairs and maintenance.

Concrete floors can easily get damaged when they are not maintained properly. The cracks and chips in the surface will make the floor uneven, increasing the risk of falls.

Commercial concrete floor sealer can help to reduce costs by increasing its lifespan, making it more durable and easier to clean.

It also helps to avoid any damage caused by spills and other incidents. Concrete sealing also helps to save energy, as you will not need powerful cleaning equipment or boiling water that may cause damage to your floor.

* The sealer protects against stains and scratches by filling in imperfections on the surface

* The sealer makes it easier to clean up because dirt particles do not get embedded in the surface

* It can also act as an additional protective layer

Capital Industries is the best place to find industrial concrete floor sealers. We have a one-step floor sealer to suit any size of business at an affordable price. Our floor sealer is a single component moisture-cured urethane, clear coating and cure time, provides a convenient solution to the need for high-performance floor coating.

Assessing Lightning’s Potential for Catastrophic Risk is Key for Building Lightning Safe Communities

FORT PIERCE, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Those familiar with New York's "Darkest Hours" likely remember the mayhem of the city's July 13, 1977 blackout. But few may be able to recall it was lightning (three sequential strikes), which caused the catastrophic event that shut down one of the world's largest cities in a matter of minutes, says DEHN, Inc.

"A single lightning event can have enormous consequences in terms of safety, damaged equipment, loss of vital data and operational breakdowns," said Mark Hendricks, vice president and technical director at DEHN, Inc. "Unfortunately, too many industries, businesses and property owners find out the hard way that lightning protection is an essential measure for safety and building resilience."

According to the National Lightning Safety Council, a typical lightning strike is about 300 million volts and can heat the air to 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit-five times hotter than the surface of the sun. Compared to a household electrical current of 120 volts and 115 amps, lightning's extreme electricity packs a massive punch, which can have devastating results to unprotected structures.

As the global market leader for lightning protection, grounding and surge solutions, DEHN, Inc. is supporting International Lightning Safety Day (ILSD21) and its Building Lightning Safe Communities initiative by providing solutions to protect lives, property and material assets from a leading weather threat. The company's track record in total lightning protection solutions includes a dedicated research and development department, more than 4,000 tested LPS products and a worldwide network of 1,900 employees in over 70 countries-including the U.S.

"Effective protection against lightning-internal and external, direct and indirect surges can be provided by safety standard compliant lightning protection systems," explained Hendricks.

Both international lightning protection system guidelines of IEC 62305 and U.S. safety standards of NFPA 780 require grounding, bonding and surge protection to address total solution protection. Unfortunately, building codes set minimum standards which may not take lightning into account, which is why DEHN provides a comprehensive Lightning Risk Assessment as a mitigation tool for calculating a structure's potential for exposure.

Capital Industries Offers Solution for Cracks in Concrete Flooring

MATTITUCK, N.Y. /ScoopCloud/ -- Capital Industries, a leading supplier of industrial concrete repair products, is proud to offer a solution for concrete cracks in industrial flooring. Concrete is a durable material, making it ideal for industrial flooring, particularly in warehouses, factories, distribution centers, and beyond, where floors tend to experience a significant amount of wear and tear. Over time, this wear and tear can lead to holes and cracks in the concrete. Capital Industries highlights the benefits of their KwikBond cement crack filler. This product helps businesses maintain and repair their industrial cement flooring, providing an effective, sustainable solution to a common problem.

What Is KwikBond?

KwikBond is a 100% resin polyester compound used to fix concrete cracks. Capital Industries created KwikBond to understand that concrete flooring is used in buildings that house various industries and that different industries are bound by different health and safety codes. For this reason, KwikBond is USDA-approved for federally inspected meat and poultry plants and is safe for use in virtually any other industry's building.

1. There Are Several Causes of Cracks in Concrete

Cracks in concrete are often caused by voids in the soil underneath the concrete. They are also usually caused by temperature fluctuations, such as when heat causes the concrete to expand to the point of cracking. Freezing temperatures cause concrete to become rigid that impacts its strength. As the water in the concrete evaporates, cracks also form. Poorly done concrete jobs have a higher likelihood of resulting in cracks.

2. It Is Essential to Fix Cracks in Concrete Flooring

Even if a crack in concrete flooring doesn't seem too large, under the surface, the concrete's integrity reduces, and other benefits like its water resistance and durability are compromised. If left untouched and not fixed, even minor cracks have the potential to escalate into a larger, much more expensive, and time-consuming problem in the future. Once a concrete crack is repaired, the concrete's strength will improve, excess liquids won't be able to leach into the concrete, durability improves, prevent corrosion, and the floor looks better safer to walk on.

The advantages are clear, particularly when compared to the risk of not doing any repairs.

KwikBond Offers a Fast, Affordable Solution to Cracks in Industrial Concrete

KwikBond provides a secure, quick set to any concrete finish at any temperature. This USDA-approved cement crack filler is a 100 percent solid polyester resin-based product that is pre-mixed. KwikBond is resilient to corrosion and moisture, and it will not shrink, allowing for a long-lasting concrete repair.

"We are proud to put all the tools to make the most of concrete industrial flooring in our customers' hands," said Len Garrett, GM of Capital Industries. "We are experts in repairing concrete flooring, and we encourage you to reach out to us at any time for all your concrete flooring needs and with any questions."

DAPA Products Shares Tips for Homeowners to Protect Their Home From Winter Pests

JASPER, Ala. /ScoopCloud/ -- DAPA Products, a window and door components manufacturer, provides winning ideas on how to keep winter pests out of a home.

Most people consider summer to be the prime pest season. That's true, but this doesn't mean that there are no pests in the winter. They can certainly bring big headaches if not prepared for properly. Fortunately, the experts at Jasper, Alabama-based DAPA Products are here to help. They recently shared some winning tips to keep insects and other pests far away in the winter. Don't forget a warm home can seem quite inviting in the cold.

"In winter, you can expect insects like boxelder bugs, ladybugs, brown stink bugs, cluster flies, earwigs, and leaf-footed bugs to look for a source of warmth," commented a spokesperson from DAPA. "They get into homes under siding, through cracks and crevices, or damaged screens. They may not be as much of a danger as summer pests, but it is still potentially a huge nuisance."

DAPA Products' expert continued, "You will typically find these pests in and around windows. A vacuum cleaner can quickly help get rid of them."

Mice are something to keep an eye on year-round but come winter, they will be even more motivated to get inside. Make sure you know how to identify their droppings so you know if any are inside before they end up causing damage.

Yes, for insects, mice, and other pests, according to DAPA Products, awareness is a key to keeping these things from becoming problems.

Probably the essential thing to keep focus on is making sure window and door components are correctly sealed, screens are replaced, and bug flaps are added to windows and doors.

When it comes to window screens, DAPA Products is answering the call. The company is a reliable source for high-quality screen splines for window screens. The correct screen spline optimizes how a door or window keeps out pests, while still allowing good air quality.

It is often an exceptionally good idea to change screen splines when screens are changed. It makes sure the new screens work as well as they can. DAPA can meet most needs regardless of shape or size. Screen splines are also available in made of a remarkable number of different materials from DAPA Products.

Contact the office for details or to answer any questions. There's no time better than today to get ready for winter. DAPA Products manufactures window and door screen components for suppliers and homeowners. For more information, visit https://www.dapaproducts.com.

About DAPA Products:

DAPA Products is known, not just for the Foam Welt Cord, but the highly demanded Foam Screen Spline, along with many more goods in the window, door, and upholstered furniture industries and braided products for the upholstery furniture industry. DAPA runs several extrusion lines 24 hours a day, 5 days per week. Foam Screen Spline has helped to reduce the stress of screening and now is the favored choice for many major manufacturers. Thanks to the support of our many friends and customers, a small beginning has proved to be highly successful. Foam Welt Cord and Foam Screen Spline are still our main products but we now provide many other products for these markets and several other industries.
