Q: Do you know anybody in the data center development or construction industry? OR, just a commercial electrician for that matter. You might want to let them know about this opportunity.
BEFORE: We took in 17,000′ (3 1/2 miles) of unused, still-in-the-crate Fiberglass Conduit from a massive data center construction project. They had some changes in scope at the end the job they were left with 17,000′ of leftover conduit. Only in America…lol

BEFORE: “These Foam Pads come as protective layers in all the boxes of produce we bring into our business. They accumulate fast! Can you help?” – Elam
AFTER: “The Foam Pads should work for a pressure target in archery. You would need to build a base and top and use all thread and locking nuts to squeeze the foam sheets together two on each side. See example below.” – Tyler
Q: Like Elam, do you have leftover materials from your operation that would be a candidate for “repurposing”? If “yes”, Email Us Details!

Extra Extra: We recently completed a pre-press check for our upcoming spring catalog at Walsworth Printing in Wisconsin, where we were able to see the entire process firsthand as they came off the press.
Walsworth is a family-owned company that recycles about 95% of their production byproduct and uses soy-based inks, making their printing process more environmentally friendly.
A special thank you to Sales Rep Kay Moore and Customer Service Rep Veronica Stueber, who both went above and beyond throughout the process.
If you’re looking for a printing company that will put your fears to rest and guide you every step of the way, we highly recommend them. ⭐ 5-stars!

Q: Is over-engineering a problem if you don’t pay anything more for it?
AFTER: “It’s not that I saved money on the PVC Pipe I bought from you for my project. I could have gone with a thinner wall thickness of pipe. But, I did upgrade the quality and durability of the pipe I’m going to use for my drainage project by buying thicker walled pipe from you without any additional cost.” – Clayton
BEFORE: We just took in 15 truckloads of new, unused PVC Pipe from a major pipe manufacturer who discontinued a product. Don’t miss out!

Zoom Call: Turner Construction‘s sustainability team invited Damon to join them on their monthly Zoom call to discuss “repurposing” as a landfill alternative strategy for all waste generated on their construction projects. Turner Construction is one of America‘s largest construction companies.
Testimonial: “Damon is an engaging, enthusiastic speaker who shows that ‘repurposing’ materials is not just possible, but frequently cost-efficient and fun. Damon’s many examples of ‘repurposed’ materials inspires creativity and ingenuity in those who are seeking to either divert materials from landfill or use ‘repurposed’ materials in some way. His example of mis-ordered bullet-proof glass being ‘repurposed’ for a zoo enclosure is of my favorites.” – Mike Bahr w/ Turner Construction
Q: Like Turner Construction, would you be interested in having Damon join your team for some continuing education?? If “yes”, Email Damon!
