“We are pleased to be recognized by NIA for our achievements in safety,” says Roslyn Smith, Armacell Business Director-Insulation. “At Armacell safety is our number one priority.”
Recognizing that safety concerns differ between contractors and general industry companies, NIA created separate categories for different sectors of the insulation industry: Associates (Manufacturers), Contractors, and Distributors/Fabricators. Armacell’s win is at the Silver level of the Associates (Manufacturers) category.
The Theodore H. Brodie Distinguished Safety Award, first given in 2004, was established to honor the leaders in the industry who go above and beyond to guarantee safe working conditions. Each company was evaluated by their overall safety program, means of communication and training, and safety policy. As the premier source of knowledge and information for the mechanical insulation sector, NIA feels it is essential to support the efforts of these outstanding companies, as safety is a crucial part of any insulation business. The award was named after Theodore H. Brodie, a tireless advocate for safety in the industry.
