LABORTOOLS INDUSTRY NEWS

For decades, the cornerstone of member communication for the Heat and Frost Insulators and Allied Workers has been a quarterly print publication known as  “The Insulators Journal.” The International Union packs a wide variety of information into the glossy magazine that is mailed to all members in both the U.S. and Canada.

Twenty years ago, you could throw a list of services and a phone number on a one-page, static website and consider your business/organization to have an online presence. But over time, as we have increasingly turned to the internet as our first — and usually only — method of gathering information, we have also had to dynamically transform the way we assess a website’s value.

The Mechanical Insulators Labor Management Cooperative Trust is a collaboration between the Heat and Frost Insulators Union and the Mechanical Insulation and Firestopping industry contractors.
