The Commercial Windows Initiative (CWI) has announced it will be working with Cardinal Glass, Mikron Industries and Tecton Industries to promote its Step Up to the Plate 2004 campaign. CWI says this baseball-themed program will target the Northwest's factory-built window manufacturers, and assist them with their efforts in communicating the benefits of energy-efficient window products to the architectural community.

"Window manufacturers have a lot of product knowledge they could offer during the design process that would result in better performing commercial buildings," said Gary Curtis, CWI project manager. "We're using Step Up to the Plate 2004 to engage manufacturers with CWI and help them promote energy-efficient glazing to the design community in the Northwest."
