MASONRY STRONG LIVE will be a program designed to provide education to those in the masonry industry. Short educational segments will be presented by industry suppliers.

Presentations will include:

GE Silicones

GE Silicones is a world-class line of high-performance, 100% silicone sealants and coatings for the construction industry. Since pioneering silicone technology in the 1930s, we've remained at the forefront of the industry. From developing the silicone for the moon landing space boots to developing the first high-performance silicone sealants for the construction industry - we have a proven heritage of producing unique, cutting-edge formulations that cannot be replicated.

In keeping with this heritage, we launched and patented GE Elemax™, the first 100% silicone air barrier system. In our presentation, we will focus on how the characteristics of silicone can deliver unmatched benefits in simplicity, ease of application, productivity, scheduling, and ultimately driving benefit to the bottom line for installing contractors.


Masonry Cosmetics

We will be doing a quick presentation of the best product for changing the color of absorptive brick in the marketplace today that is a Proprietary Proven Masonry Stain. A stain that can in no way hurt or compromise the brick it is applied to.

During this presentation, we will be introducing the product and a little on who we are while demonstrating how easy the product is to use. We will announce that we are looking for a few good contractors to do what we know how to do best where they can also make money in ways they could not have done before and at the same time complimenting their already successful business.


EZG Manufacturing

We will be presenting one of our newest products. We will also be discussing our “Lean Masonry” initiative describing the savings of time, labor, and money by using the Grout Hog, Mud Hog, and Hog Leg Kit. We will also introduce our new Hog Training Stand that will help a company teach new masons how to lay block and will also go over our new 2-year warranty on EZG equipment.


Crewtracks

In this presentation, Brett Fairbourn, VP of Marketing, will demonstrate CrewTracks' most popular features. CrewTracks is the first truly paperless field management solution in the mobile timekeeping space, as well as the only field management solution partnered with the MCAA. Features we’ve implemented specifically for masonry companies include:

- Optional time clock allows you to focus on production instead of exact clock in/out times
- Automatic lunchtime allocation saves time in field reporting
- Beefed up production reporting, including automatically calculated (but overridable) efficiency expectations and benchmarks

The web interface of CrewTracks enables you to import a bid, schedule jobs, dispatch crews and equipment, and view automatically-generated reports in real-time, while the mobile app allows field workers to quickly report attendance, work completed, and materials and equipment usage, all accompanied by notes and photos. Our document management feature enables office staff to upload plans, drawings, or custom PDF forms for the field crews to view, edit, annotate, and sign.

CrewTracks makes it easy to gather the information you need to eliminate paperwork, stay within budget, and stop letting so much time and money slip through the cracks.
