The Pro AV industry is ever-evolving. As companies launch new products or services, they must continue to evolve with both industry and marketing trends. Education and efficiency are crucial to maximizing the return on products or services.

MarketScale spoke with company Director, Strategic Partnerships Brandon Pfluger about what tools Pro AV companies can leverage to better themselves. Pfluger provided three trends that he sees Pro AV brands utilize.

1. Podcasts

We’re seeing more and more Pro AV companies join the podcasting movement and setting up their own channels. It’s an awesome way for businesses to build on current partner relationships and nurture prospective clients by providing an incredible experience to share their thought leadership together.

Pro AV customers want a more on-demand experience. The podcast provides that, and allows for the customer to consume quick and digestible forms of content. Allowing your sales or marketing team an outlet to speak with their customers in a more educational and conversational way is proving extremely beneficial. These teams are also building more trust in the process by sharing their knowledge and expertise.

2. 3D Videos

We’re more frequently seeing 3D video utilized to showcase new products, new product features, and product abilities. By creating high quality 3D video content for your products, you’re now able to show your market your new innovations versus just telling them about it. Not to mention it looks fantastic and people love to interact with it. Try looping some 3D video at your next big trade show.

3. Chatbots

Having a chatbot on your website is revolutionizing the way your customers and visitors interact with your website and engage with sales. By creating strategic pathways, marketers are now able to help connect, qualify, and direct the visitors to the right content on the website.

More importantly they can get an appointment set up with the right sales rep without having to wait 24, 48 or 72 hours like most ‘contact us’ forms require. The result? Quicker and warmer engagement with the visitor, and more appointments for sales.

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.
  • 02Rifle-rated UL 752 Level 7 glazing runs about 15 pounds per square foot, so the security rating and the sealant's 30 psi design strength belong in the same specification review.
  • 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.

IndexBox sees panelized buildings growing 5.3% a year if panel plants keep up

IndexBox sees panelized buildings growing 5.3% a year if panel plants keep up

IndexBox forecasts the global panelized buildings market to grow 5.3% a year from 2026 to 2035, with residential housing at about 45% of 2026 demand. Factory capacity is the catch. Limited mass timber and specialized steel framing capacity will hold growth back in some regions, and IndexBox expects investment in new plants and automation to ease those bottlenecks by the late 2020s.

  • 01Panels swap scarce framing crews for factory hours, and through the late 2020s the factory hours for mass timber and specialized steel framing are scarce too.
  • 02Housing is 45% of panelized demand, but commercial and institutional projects are expected to grow faster because owners are paying for schedule certainty; warehouse and campus owners are closest to that shift.
  • 03Mid-scale volumetric modular plants are estimated to need 60% to 70% utilization to break even; panel lines use different equipment, but the report argues the same fixed-cost logic can make order-book visibility important before adding shifts or lines.

Requests for Paebbl's carbon-storing cement substitute far outstrip what it can produce

Requests for Paebbl's carbon-storing cement substitute far outstrip what it can produce

Rebond 300 replaces up to 30% of cement in concrete with no equipment changes. In a Holcim and Goldbeck floor slab trial at C30/37, its workability, setting time and finishing matched the reference mix. Demand exceeds what Paebbl can produce, and closing that gap is now its main challenge.

  • 01After Rebond 300 runs through a standard ready-mix plant and hits C30/37 with no schedule change, buyers’ next questions shift to supply and allocation—how many tonnes Paebbl can ship—alongside price and how much of the mix to commit.
  • 02If Rebond 300 displaces up to 30% of cement yet can cut embodied carbon by up to 40%, the figures imply a negative footprint beyond simple substitution; Paebbl cites a verified -149 kg CO2e per tonne of product, with results depending on mix design.
