Glen-Gery Goes For The Silver Tier In The Masonry Alliance Program

Words: Isa Stein

Glen-Gery, leading brick manufacturer, masonry material supplier and current MCAA Corporate Partner, will move into the Silver Tier in the Masonry Alliance Program. Glen-Gery is one of 70 companies spread across four tiers of industry immersion to receive unprecedented access to the $33 billion masonry industry.

“We are thrilled to continue our partnership with a great organization dedicated to the growth of the industry,” said Tim Leese, Marketing Director, Glen-Gery. “The MCAA shares our vision for preserving and promoting the use of masonry as well as training and supporting the next generation of masons.”

The MCAA’s current Strategic and Corporate Partnerships will be phased out at the end of the year. The MAP’s four tiers: Cornerstone, Platinum, Gold, and Silver, will serve as the only way for active industry suppliers to remain involved in MCAA activities. Items like event attendance, sponsorships, advertising, and more will no longer be available outside of the program.

“Glen-Gery is one of our newer Partners. It’s great that even though they haven’t had a long relationship with us, they see value in the Masonry Alliance Program. We hope our collaboration continues to grow,” said Dan Kamys, MCAA Director of Content.

The Masonry Alliance Program’s four tiers are each capped. There are no plans to ever expand the capacity. Availability in the program is open to any interested company.
