RALEIGH, N.C. – A strategic alliance has been established between RCI, Inc. and the Sealant Waterproofing and Restoration (SWR) Institute. The collaboration furthers the goals of both organizations – to promote standards for those involved with sealants, waterproofing, building exteriors and restoration.

According to RCI President David R. Hawn, RRC, CEM, “The alliance strengthens the voice of both RCI and the SWR Institute. It expands professional development opportunities for construction, consulting and contracting professionals, and it will present a united message regarding methods, techniques and products used in the industry.” SWR Institute President Jed Daniel concurs. “Working with RCI not only helps both organizations but the industry. SWR Institute is excited about the possibilities of this alliance.” The organizations will share industry expertise and information for the mutual benefit of both associations. RCI and SWR Institute have begun collectively developing educational documents and programs for sealant, waterproofing, building exterior, and restoration practitioners. A cosponsored Webinar on air barriers is currently in production and will be released to the public mid-year in 2010. Future joint projects will include a variety of webinars, seminars, and position papers.
