Proudly Introducing The Webb

Written by admin on . Posted in Company. No Comments on Proudly Introducing The Webb

In 2022, ColonialWebb celebrates the milestone of having been in business for 50 years. Needless to say, this golden anniversary is a big one for us. For most companies, an anniversary like this would welcome nostalgia and naturally position itself as an opportunity to look back at the highlights of the past 50 years — moments when the business expanded, leadership transitioned, logos changed, and acquisitions took place.

Instead, this milestone has brought ColonialWebb to a place where we are focusing on where we are now and where we are going. As an organization, we continue to live through our values of Safety, Empathy, Integrity, and Urgency. Looking forward to the next 50 years, we want to build on these values by empowering our teammates, remaining in touch through attentiveness, and focusing on individuals. This moment brings us to a place where we are happy to announce the launch of a new platform, The Webb.

The Webb is a knowledge-base about the skilled trades that install, maintain, and service building systems. First and foremost, The Webb serves as a Blog with informative articles meant to educate everyone from aspiring apprentices to building owners. In addition to the written content that we produce, we will host a supplemental Video Library and an integrated [simple_tooltip content=’Glossary terms will be bold and highlighted in ColonialWebb blue. They are meant to help define terms so that you never feel left out by any industry terminology or jargon.’]Glossary (Hover Me)[/simple_tooltip] of terminology found within the trades and our industry.

Universally, the content that we share will be built around Building Service, Construction, Industrial Refrigeration, and Manufacturing topics. This includes a diverse range of subject matter ranging from HVAC to Virtual Construction to Ammonia Refrigeration and Sheet Metal Fabrication.

Beyond the content, The Webb is a celebration of ColonialWebb’s teammates. This is a platform created to empower our talent through shared expertise and individual expression. For our customers and non-customers alike, it is a central hub for education and self-growth. ColonialWebb’s success is built around the community it serves and The Webb is another extension that will move our legacy forward.

On that note, will you join us on this journey forward? If you have an interest in sharpening your skill set, refreshing your knowledge, or perusing at the work that gets us out of bed in the morning, then consider subscribing to the blog for regular updates on the insights we share. Drop us a comment, share our content with a pal, or even reach out to us directly at any time if you want to learn about something that pertains to What We Do. We are thrilled to have the privilege and opportunity to share our expertise with you!

Let’s Celebrate! – Behind the Yellow Tape

Written by admin on . Posted in Company. No Comments on Let’s Celebrate! – Behind the Yellow Tape

The 1970s was a cool era. After all, it was then that people invented a hundred different ways to say “cool.” It was also the disco era; hello bell-bottoms and tube socks. But more importantly, it was when Rick Langford and Donnie Lovell began their careers with CW. In this episode of BTYT, the cast got decked out in their grooviest attire to celebrate Rick and Donnie, who have been here since The ’70s!!! (And a reminder that this episode (and all of Season 2) was filmed entirely in 2019, long before the coronavirus.)

Whether it’s the people, the innovation, the giving back, the fun, or a combination of all those – CW teammates love where they work! In this episode, we visit a construction site and start a super-serious game of Rock Paper Scissors as a fun way to say “thank you” for all your hard work!

Season two was filmed entirely in 2019, long before we heard of the coronavirus, so you will notice the teammates in our videos are not COVID compliant by today’s standards. Rest assured, CW is going above and beyond to ensure our teammates are safe in today’s work environment.
