BuildClean HEPA Filter

1. BuildClean

The BuildClean HEPA air scrubber is a two-part air filtration system. The coarse pre-filter traps the bigger things you can see, and a HEPA filters out everything you can’t. The scrubber has an auto setting that will turn the unit on when needed. Dust in the work space is drawn into the unit and vented out of the house, preventing it from migrating to other rooms or into forced air systems.

EazyHang Hang it Yourself

2. Hang-It-Yourself (Formerly EazyHang)

Hang-It-Yourself is a cabinet installation system built to save time and hang cabinets level every time. Because it’s a cleat system, remodelers can cut the rail to fit. Once the rail system is in place, remodelers can mount the brackets on the back of the cabinet and you lift it up, slide it against the rail, and wait to hear it click in place. You can mount the system flush so you can get it almost all the way to the ceiling, or you can install it in the back where you can install a crown to hide it. 

custom building products grout

3. Custom Building Products

Custom Building Products has introduced eight grout colors: Steel Blue (shown), Arctic White, Cool White, Coffee Bean, Brown Velvet, Ash, Warm Gray and Shadow. Custom’s grouts come in 40 hues, so users can handle everything from tile patterns to natural stone installations. The company also enhanced its Polyblend grout, and the result is Polyblend Plus, which has brighter, enhanced color and is more efflorescence resistant without compromising durability.

Pelican brief

4. Pelican

The EZ-Click MOLLE Panel by Pelican is the only quick-release MOLLE mounting system that can withstand temperatures from 0 °F to 140 °F. The panel is made to fit into the inside of the container’s lid, allowing pros to secure the tools they need to the lid organizer’s grid and then lock it into place. With the quick-release design, users can easily remove the panel and reorganize the lid without the hassle of extra tools.

6. Occipital

With the free Canvas app by Occipital, remodelers can quickly take room measurements and create CAD-ready, 3D files compatible with programs such as Revit, SketchUp, and Chief Architect. The 3D files are only accessible through payment, which is determined by square footage. The scanner app utilizes the LiDAR sensor inside a smartphone’s camera to measure depth. While image-based measuring is up to 95% accurate, LiDAR-based scans are accurate up to 99%. 

maipei grout

7. Mapei Group

Mapei Group’s Ultracolor Plus Max grout offers two additional shades: Pure White and Jet Black. Suitable for grouting tile and stone joint widths from 1/16” to 3/4”. Such fine-sand aggregate means there’s no scratching of delicate tiles and stones. This grout features DropEffect technology, which reduces surface absorption to help repel water, dirt and grime from penetrating grout joints. Meets or exceeds ANSI A118.7 for high-performance cement grouts.

form-a-drain

10. Form-a-Drain

Designed for basement applications, Form-A-Drain Plus is a 3-in-1 foundation solution that forms footings, provides an integrated drainage system and can be easily adapted to vent radon where needed.
