"The building trades are increasingly competitive, so we've designed
this new Web site with improved functionality for Sonotube form customers,"
said Pete Gioldasis, category manager, Construction Products. "Our goal was
to streamline customers' access to useful technical information about our
products so they can do their jobs more efficiently and effectively. Users
who tested the site before it went live appreciated its ease of use and the
information geared specifically for their industries."
The site includes a tools and resources section with a Volume
Calculator, which helps determine the right amount of concrete for the job.
Visitors input the dimensions of their column and the calculator calculates
the amount of concrete required.
The site also features detailed product pages, outlining features,
applications, sizes and installation information for Sonotube's seven
product lines - Sonotube round, square and Finish Free(R) concrete forms;
Sonotube(R) Void forms; Builders Tube(R) concrete forms; and TubeBase(R)
column footing forms. It also contains a frequently asked question section
and media center with photographs of Sonotube end-use applications.
The site also contains information for typical users of the product
line - a Distributors' Info Center, an Architects/Engineers Info Center and
a Contractors Info Center.
