NCI Group is participating as a Silver Level Sponsor at the 2010 Greenbuild International Conference and Expo on November 17-19 in Chicago. This year will mark NCI’s third consecutive year of sponsorship and second consecutive year of exhibition. “Many of our existing products already contribute towards LEED points and provide energy efficiency benefits that exceed conventional building construction while providing long-term cost savings for building owners.” said Bob Zabcik, Director of Research and Development/Green Building Initiative. At the show, NCI will be showcasing their products, multiple cool roof color options and applied textured finishes like Natural Stone and Rockwall, which function as outstanding substitutions for masonry or tilt-wall construction. “Our Insulated Metal Panels (IMPs) are becoming increasingly popular due to the demands of the energy efficiency codes that are being adopted across the country,” reports Zabcik. NCI will have staff on-hand to answer questions related to their products and services such as the short- and long-term benefits of extended life cycles, lower maintenance, value engineered solutions, increased R-values and more.
