Changes are part of life, as is the reality of any industry. Keeping a high level of quality in our industry is very important and is measurable by the standards that the Architectural Woodwork Institute (AWI) sets.
With that being said, they are making some changes to their standards starting in 2018 and carrying on into the future.
Just a couple of the changes are:
- Information which will help specifiers when they are choosing cabinets for specific uses
- Access to their standards on all electronic devices
Take a look at the article below from Woodworking Network for some more information on the changes that are coming.
