Thank you, National Glass Association (NGA). We think of you as a valued ally as well, and look forward to pursuing common goals.
GLASS & GLAZING ADVOCACY DAYS - DAY 1 COVERAGE- #ASTM #NGA thanks Jeff Grove, Vice President of Global Policy, Cooperation, and Communications at ASTM International, for speaking to our 2024 Glass & Glazing Advocacy Days attendees. ASTM is a valued ally to NGA and we thank Jeff for his time and insight. One of Jeff's key takeaways was calling the development of the “forced entry resistance” standard with NGA a “great story” of collaboration between government and industry to ensure public safety. Our Urmilla Jokhu Sowell (pictured with Jeff below) is a current member of the ASTM Board of Directors, and both organizations' commitment to improving the industry and the world is a priority. Stay tuned for more coverage from Washington, DC, on this and all of the NGA-related social channels! #glass #glazing #advocacy #testing #standards #GlassIndustry
