Weyerhaeuser used their bright green booth at the show to launch the company's iLevel brand, a new organizational structure intended to simplify the process of ordering materials from the forest products manufacturer. Delta introduced the Urban collection of European-styled faucets for the booming upscale condo market.

HessAmerica had a simple display of their latest area lighting fixtures in the West Hall, including the Night Elements line of pole lights that place illumination on several levels of the fixture.
The USGBC unveiled a new branding image, a subtle but fresher version of their logo and marketing materials. Novum Structures (formerly Mero) has repositioned the company's image and product line as well, and displayed both in a small glass structure on the floor of the West Hall.
