Around this time every year, this question comes up: I want my company listed in the annual Specifier’s Guide. Do we qualify for any free company listings or free product data charts?

The quick answer is “Yes” — (1) if you advertise in Geosynthetics magazine or (2) if you are a member of the Geosynthetic Materials Association (GMA).

For example, six-time/per year advertisers receive 15 free directory listings and chart lines. General members of GMA receive 10 free listings. (See complete chart below.)

If your company is not an advertiser or a GMA member, now is a great time to start or join.

The award-winning Geosynthetics magazine continues to add more pages and more advertisers. The readership of this magazine is enthusiastically loyal, and the magazine’s content serves its audience well, with accurately-written technical articles, application-oriented case studies, and educational Q-and-A features.

GMA’s membership has more than doubled in the past five years. Leadership from the GMA’s Executive Council and Managing Director Andrew Aho have unceasingly promoted the geosynthetics industry, including successful sessions with congressional representatives and U.S. agencies such as TRB, the EPA, AASHTO, and FHWA.

Support your industry with new subscriptions to Geosynthetics and new memberships in GMA. In addition to useful information from your magazine and great service from your association … you get free listings in the Specifier’s Guide!
