Benefits of Sponsorhip

ToolBase provides sponsors with:

  • Access to the approximately 242,000 monthly visitors to www.toolbase.org, and the 85,000 readers of ToolBase News, most of whom are builders, with the opportunity to provide valuable technical information on their own products through direct links and sponsored content.
  • Affiliation with the NAHB Research Center and the ToolBase Services Program — both trusted sources of objective information and solid building science — through sponsorship of new content creation and topic areas on www.toolbase.org.
  • The opportunity to disseminate information on your building product through proven information dissemination vehicles, such as ToolBase TechSpecs, that are developed specifically to educate builders, remodelers, and trade contractors on innovative residential construction technologies and practices.
  • Access to the NAHB Research Center’s building scientists for the development of objective content, such as white papers, technology summaries, educational video segments, CAD details, and more.
  • Opportunities to develop and implement joint projects with the NAHB Research Center, other ToolBase sponsors, and federal agencies
  • High-level visibility from public relations activities associated with the NAHB Research Center, and the ToolBase Services and PATH programs.

ToolBase collects and disseminates information on product performance, cost, code acceptance, and durability to reduce or eliminate barriers to the widespread use of advanced residential construction technologies. When such information is needed but not available, ToolBase coordinates with manufacturers, builders, and building scientists at the NAHB Research Center’s Laboratory and Certification Services division to conduct laboratory and field testing.

To deliver this information, ToolBase Services provides:

  • www.toolbase.org
    A comprehensive website on residential construction technology featuring over 2,000 pages of information on hundreds of building technologies and practices that address affordability, energy efficiency, environmental performance, quality and durability, and safety and disaster mitigation.  Each month, the site receives over 242,000 unique visits.
  • PATH Technology Inventory
    An online listing of over 150 advanced technologies and practices.  The listings contain field test information, CAD details, streaming installation videos, and more.
  • ToolBase News
    A quarterly, printed newsletter containing the latest building technology news.  ToolBase News is distributed through NAHB’s local home builder associations and online to over 85,000 readers.
  • ToolBase E-News
    A bi-weekly building technology news bulletin distributed via email.
  • TechSpecs
    Concise, easy-to-read summaries of key technologies written for a builder audience. View an example (PDF).
