Tamlyn Director of Architectural Products Ian Daniels joined host Tyler Kern remotely to address the company’s response to the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting several key aspects of the company’s operations as coronavirus continues to disrupt business the world over.

For outside sales staff and distributors, Tamlyn is working to provide options for remote productivity, such as increased video capabilities and the creation of digital educational assets designed to promote communication and knowledge without face-to-face meetings.

“We’re kind of taking a twofold approach,” Daniels said. “For our outside sales team, what we’re doing is, obviously, a lot of video … At our home base back in Houston, what we’re doing, which is pretty cool, is we’ve taken as many people as we can that can work from home, we’ve had them work from home.”

Tamlyn has also taken other precautions for on-site staff, such as regular disinfecting, promotion of social distancing, even in-office, and more.

To help provide critical protective masks, Tamlyn is partnering with Paty, Inc., a company that makes infant clothing, to leverage its commercial, weather-resistant barrier material to make that protective equipment.

Finally, Daniels said the XtremeTrim product line, Tamlyn’s flagship product, is doing as well as ever.

“It hasn’t slowed down. Actually, it’s probably allowed us to ramp it up, a little bit,” he said. “It’s given some of our guys some time to sit back, think about new profiles and start creating new profiles. It’s also enabled some business-to-business partnerships to come back into the realm. … The really exciting thing for us is we’ve done some new, two-piece profiles.”

Which Trimble Connect AI tools contractors can actually use today

Which Trimble Connect AI tools contractors can actually use today

Six of the 10 AI capabilities Trimble listed at Dimensions, including scheduling and invoice matching, are available now. Change order drafting from the Document Crunch acquisition is still in development, and WorksManager Drone reaches dealers in January 2027. Plan pilots by ship date.

  • 01Six of the 10 AI capabilities Trimble listed at Dimensions are available today; contract-risk change order drafting, the feature closest to a general contractor's margin, is still in development.
  • 02Standardized AI safety labels on every current Connect agent give procurement and risk teams a document to ask any construction AI vendor for.

Lilly breaks ground on $3.5B Pennsylvania injectables plant whose first named drug is still in trials

Lilly breaks ground on $3.5B Pennsylvania injectables plant whose first named drug is still in trials

Eli Lilly broke ground on a $3.5 billion injectable-medicines manufacturing facility in Fogelsville, Pennsylvania, expected to be operational by 2031. The site is intended to add capacity for next-generation obesity medicines, including retatrutide, which Lilly is studying in several Phase 3 clinical trials. Lilly says the facility will use machine learning, AI and digitally integrated systems, and the site head describes the goal as a fully automated process from receiving materials through the warehouse.

  • 01Lilly cited scale figures that highlight the data burden in its process: more than 5,000 documented steps per production run and imaging and inspection of every pen more than 70 times before it ships.
  • 02Watch whether Lehigh Valley reuses the designs from Lilly's other injectable sites in Kenosha, Concord and Research Triangle Park, since a standardized network means equipment and systems choices proven at one site could repeat at the next.

Why Momentive says city data centers need sealant built for 1,000-foot towers

Why Momentive says city data centers need sealant built for 1,000-foot towers

Planners are pushing urban data centers toward glass facades. Bull argues high-load structural silicone glazing—like the 30 psi UltraGlaze SSG4600 used on Austin’s 1,025-foot Waterline tower—can help support heavier security glass and tighter enclosure performance in new multi-story builds.

  • 01When a city insists a data center look like an office building, the sealant holding the glass ends up doing work for the cooling plant.
  • 02UL 752 Level 7 glazing protection is indicated at about 1.6 inches thick; ensuring security glass weight and facade joint capacity align is critical.
  • 03The supertall-sealant case applies mainly to new urban builds; most operating U.S. data centers can't shut down for facade replacement and harden their glass through retrofit shields instead.
