Case Study: Spec Change Saves Contractor Schedule

Office

The expectation of speed in building construction today means deadlines are a constant challenge for installers.  In the case of science and tech company EMD Performance Materials’ headquarters, a tighter-than-usual project timeline placed high installation demands on the contractor team. Fortunately, a change in specification brought on a ceiling product with out-of-the box hardware and templates that helped installers use methods to keep the project on pace rather than miss deadlines.
