Brian Whelan, executive vice president of Sika Corporation – Roofing and Flooring, recently was named chair of the newly-elected board of directors for the Center for Environmental Innovation in Roofing (CEIR).
Whelan, along with the three other members of the board, will be tasked with guiding the organization’s industry leadership in promoting environmentally responsible roof systems.
“I’m honored to be elected by the members to serve as their chair for the next year,” Whelan said. “It is an exciting time to be a part of the center as we pursue regulatory and codes initiatives touting the benefits of high performance roof systems.”
CEIR participates in the development of U.S. standards and codes relating to roofing. Through committee work, the new board of directors and members will seek to incorporate the center’s RoofPoint certification program into national building construction standards. CEIR’s ANSI Task Group will work to achieve ANSI certification for the RoofPoint Guideline for Environmentally Innovative Nonresidential Roofing, and its ICC Task Group will develop and support roofing industry-beneficial model code updates that promote environmentally-friendly roof systems.
