Based in the Toronto area, Wayne has a diverse background in sales, marketing and business development in the plastics and metals industries. He previously worked for Performance Polymers Innovations as a North American sales manager.
In his role with Technoform Edge Bond Solutions, he supports insulating glass fabricators and fenestration system manufacturers to produce IGUs with high performance, durability and optimized service life. Technoform has delivered more 1 billion meters of warm edge spacers worldwide, which have been used in approximately 350 million window systems. These have helped to save approximately 1.5 billion kWh of energy per year, conserve resources and reduce emissions.
Most recently, Wayne operated D2 Innovation, directing consulting projects for clients in the field of Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SHRED), including developing and managing Quality Management System Implementation (ISO9001, HACCP). He studied at Conestoga College and the University of Guelph in Ontario, and earned a Bachelor of Commerce in business and managerial economics from McGill University in Montreal.
Fred Worm, Sales Engineer, Technoform Insulation Solutions
Based in Penticton, British Columbia, Worm brings more than 30 years of experience in curtainwall, skylights and window product development, as well as product testing and installation. He has worked with several Technoform North America’s customers, including Kawneer, Antamex, Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope and Integro Building Systems.
Now with Technoform Insulation Solutions, he assists in providing high-performance, precision extruded polyamide thermal profiles for manufacturers of metal-framed windows, doors, and other façade and fenestration systems. Technoform’s polyamide composition creates a highly effective thermal barrier that helps insulate 500 times better than aluminum. It reduces heat transfer for improved energy efficiency; lowers condensation, lessening the potential for mold and mildew; and delivers long-term durability.
Prior to joining Technoform, Worm served as vice president of product development for Integro Building Systems based in Canada. Providing the foundational education for his extensive career, he graduated from the University of Waterloo in Ontario with a bachelor’s in mechanical engineering.
