Involved in Improving the Industry

Building a better building envelope industry isn’t a solo act. That’s why BECS actively engages with the top leading professional organizations out there. These groups set the standards, write the rulebooks, and basically keep the whole industry humming.

We don’t just pay lip service – we have our very own team of specialists who are deeply involved with these organizations.

They bridge the gap between the industry leaders and our awesome clients, making sure everyone’s on the same page.

We use the latest industry standards and codes developed by these esteemed organizations, such as the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), American Concrete Institute (ACI), International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI), Waterproofing and Restoration Institute (SWRI), International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants (IBEC), among others (you can see the full list below) to make sure our diagnostic techniques and solutions are top-notch.
