Intense windstorms are ravaging communities across the nation, putting millions of people at risk.

Meteorologists warn that dangerous gusts exceeding 55 mph could cause widespread power outages, coastal flooding, and catastrophic property damage.

In episode I highlight that in the face of this fierce onslaught, taking decisive defensive action is crucial to safeguarding lives and buildings.

The immense force of these raging winds can wreak havoc on buildings, tearing off roofs, shattering windows, and allowing destructive uplift forces to penetrate through even the smallest openings.

As the storm intensifies, the risk of irreparable damage escalates, leaving businesses and homeowners vulnerable to the unforgiving power of nature.

Fortunately, there is a solution that can provide long-term protection against the ravages of fierce winds: sealing all potential entry points with a proven, sustainable coating system that is guaranteed for 20 years.

For over 30 years Global Encasement Inc. has provided cutting-edge, green technology that can fortify buildings against even the most extreme weather conditions.

Their innovative fluid-applied coating flows seamlessly into gaps, holes, and open seams, creating an impenetrable barrier that seals out the damaging effects of wind uplift.

As the coating dries, it forms a durable, weatherproof seal that withstands the relentless onslaught of high winds, shielding the integrity of the structure.

This defensive measure not only protects against immediate storm damage but also safeguards against long-term deterioration caused by moisture intrusion and air infiltration.

By sealing the building envelope, Global Encasement's system ensures energy efficiency, reducing utility costs and minimizing the environmental impact.

These systems are not only a powerful defense against nature’s wrath, but they also work alongside it by being non-toxic, biodegradable, having zero to low VOC's (volatile organic content) and no ozone depleting substances. 

In the face of escalating climate change and the increasing frequency of severe weather events, proactive measures like these are no longer optional – they are a necessity.

Failure to take action could result in catastrophic consequences, including loss of property, displacement, and even loss of life.

To Sum IT Up:

As the winds howl and the storm rages on, the time to act is now.

By investing in proven protective measures like Global Encasement, Inc’s Green and sustainable coating systems, businesses and homeowners can quickly fortify their properties against the onslaught of nature's fury, ensuring the safety and security of their loved ones and assets.

Don't wait until it's too late.

Embrace the power of simple defensive action and join the ranks of those who have chosen to stand firm against the forces of nature.

Take the first step towards safeguarding your property and protecting what matters most.

The first time I heard about Earth Day was when I was in the eighth grade and my well admired and clever science teacher opened up a discussion on the cons of earth day stating it was some sort of liberal nonsense and a hoax. This agitated most of the class.

I think we all agree that it’s so important to minimize the spread of germs. That is one of the most significant and preventative measures we can take.

Do You Know Why the Right Protective Green Coating Resembles our Largest Organ? The right protective coating can protect all parts of a building just like the skin protects all parts of a body. Both are the first line of defense and without them both our bodies and buildings would be naked eventually causing a complete breakdown. Our largest organ, the skin on the outside of our bodies protects our muscles, organs, bones and brain from infections, sunlight, temperature extremes and other threats. The same is true with the right coating that covers the outside of a building protecting occupants and the structure itself. It prevents the deterioration of interior building components such as heating and cooling apparatus, plumbing, electric and furnishings.

As I travel and work internationally, I encounter different aspects and opinions on asbestos. It has a long background of use in all types of situations and still widely used in building materials. To date, it is still mined and incorporated into many products in several countries. It is controversial at best. My goal is always to try and enlighten and not frighten about some of its uses and misconceptions. The fact is that as much as it is opposed and even outlawed in some parts of the world, it is still mined, exported and used in many others.

As I’ve studied the issues of what building components are the main culprits of polluting our environment of both soil and water along with generating the most waste, I’ve found that roofing can be a leading offender. This also includes air pollution if the roofing contains asbestos. Asbestos is a large content of many roofs and wall surfaces worldwide and its microscopic fibers are continually released into the environment as it breaks down.

As I travel internationally and educate many on how to simply deal with solid hazardous materials and safely contain them with green coatings I’m always amazed how differently countries look at situations with building products and how to handle them.

Asbestos – The three options when addressing asbestos in building materials are: first, full blown removal; second, do nothing and leave it alone; and the third, in-place management.
