ERA Joins the American High-Performance Buildings Coalition
BETHESDA, Md. — The EPDM Roofing Association (ERA) is joining with other leading associations representing the building and construction industry to form the American High-Performance Buildings Coalition (AHPBC). The new coalition is committed to promoting and supporting the development of sustainable building standards which are based on consensus and scientific performance data.
“This group represents a brain trust of the best expertise in the construction and building industries. We are committed to standards that support sustainability, but we want those standards to be based on consensus thinking and scientific performance data, not on unsubstantiated perceptions,” said John Geary, vice president of Marketing at Firestone Building Products, and Chairman of ERA’s Board of Directors.
