why was reinco formed?
Eric Davidson found that visitors to Self Build shows were being confused by conflicting advice. He also met many people who spent several years amassing information but needed help evaluating and prioritising their data. On some building sites tens of thousands of pounds had been spent on low priority, slow payback technologies, leaving meagre budgets available for insulation and other items which should be given much greater priority.
