Paul Grahovac remembers helping his dad shingle a roof when he was barely big enough to climb the ladder. As he grew up, so did his experiences in all kinds of hands-on jobs. Today, Paul wears many hats for PROSOCO. The entire R-Guard Crew is here for you: bit.ly/3jiUTeq

Congrats to the University of Toronto's Laneway housing project, a 2021 Canadian Green Building Award Winner. Our sister company @BuildSmartNA produced the building envelope for these net-positive projects, and PROSOCO's R-Guard products were used for adhesives and air-sealing.

A #LivingBuildingChallenge project is no small feat, but it's especially tricky in the heat and humidity of the Deep South. Here's how the project team of Georgia Tech's Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design did it. bit.ly/2FDkOIX

We’re only beginning to understand the impact of noise pollution on physical and mental wellbeing, including sleep patterns, cognitive ability, and cardiovascular health.
An estimated 60% of that pollution comes from motor vehicles. But it doesn’t have to be that way. #Amsterdam

Prefabrication great for developers but a threat to contractors.

Land Prices Skyrocket. Comment: Railroad-adjacent land is low-cost and low on NIMBY, and Passive House multifamily is practically soundproof.

#SolarEnergy represents only 3% of Mali's energy mix, despite its immense solar potential. See how @GCF_News is working to change that, with funding for solar-based mini-grids for rural electrification >> bit.ly/2W3dNrv

It's finally happening! First of three concrete pours tomorrow for the perimeter strip footings on three sides. 4" of EPS under the strip footers, then 10 mil vapor barrier installed and ready for mud! Need this wind to quit, but thankful for the 70 degree days in March!

It’s been a bumpy road and a lot of sacrifice, but I’m finally under construction on my @BuildSmartNA #PassiveHouse! Living in a trailer has allowed me to save to make this project feasible, but I’m ready for a real house again! Follow the project page @LMPassiveHouse for more.
