FenBC Merges With FGIA

The Fenestration Association of British Columbia (FenBC) is now a Canadian region of the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA). The boards of both organizations approved the creation of FGIA's first Canadian region by integrating FenBC as the newly-formed FGIA FenBC region. The region will operate similarly to the pre-existing FGIA U.S. regions – FGIA southeast region and FGIA western region – and will focus on regulatory and government initiatives, product installation, commercial contractor interests, and related needs within BC. In addition, a region-specific one-day, in-person meeting and a one-day virtual event are targeted for inclusion each year. "By expanding FGIA regional offerings to include FenBC, FGIA strengthens its Canadian presence with a strong and well-respected provincial organization," says Dan Parrish, chairman of the FGIA Board and engineering manager with Pella Corporation.
