We are excited to report another successful showing at Hardscape North America (HNA)! Earlier this month, we debuted our refreshed logo and re-engineered product categories with our innovative new booth layout at the premier hardscape tradeshow in North America. This new approach to how we present our product offerings aims to raise awareness about our complete suite of outdoor living solutions while enabling better engagement with our customers.

In case you missed it, watch the below video with Jenny Nail, Chief Revenue Officer, and Steve Jones, VP Hardscapes, to tour the booth and get the inside scoop on this new chapter for our APG Family of Brands.

Did you know breast cancer accounts for 12.5% of all new annual cancer cases worldwide, making it the most common cancer in the world? In the US, one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer each year. In support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, many of our Oldcastle APG teams took extra measures to raise awareness and funds for cancer research and treatment.

In Atlanta, we offered a mobile mammogram clinic at the office for employees to get their annual screenings – an important tool in combatting breast cancer via early detection. The Atlanta office also created a team that participated in the Winship Cancer Institute 5K, raising more than $7,000 for innovative research and treatments!

Several members of our teams raised awareness by donning pink ribbons on APG transportation vehicles and designating days to wear pink at their respective sites. In fact, APG Mid-Atlantic declared each Friday in October as a Wear Pink Day to honor family members, friends and colleagues who have been impacted by breast cancer.

APG Tees Off for Charity

Last week, members from GMS, Sakrete and Barrette Outdoor Living joined the American Cancer Society's 2023 Atlanta Select Golf Invitational.

This tournament and silent auction raised nearly $420,000 to support cancer research and patient care while offering a bit of fun out on the green.

Shoutout to our team for participating in this great event!

Extremely proud of our Coastal team for going the extra mile to put our Purpose in action through a recent renovation project at the Ronald McDonald House in Gainesville, FL. 

Following the house's interior expansion, our team members installed more than 8,000 square feet of donated Belgard and Techniseal products to create a beautiful escape for families whose children need major transplants or treatments at the University of Florida Health Shands Hospital.

Join us in congratulating our team on this incredible project! Check out the before, during and after photos below to see this amazing transformation come to life.
