NEW DELHI and NEW YORK, August 19, 2025 /3BL/ – Experion Developers, a leading residential real estate company in India, and the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), the global authority for advancing health in buildings, organizations and communities, announced today that three of Experion’s flagship residential complexes have achieved the precertified WELL Residence designation awarded through IWBI’s WELL for residential program. This precertification for nearly 1,000 residences marks a major milestone of Experion’s progress in delivering healthier and more resilient homes in India.

By achieving WELL for residential precertification for Elements in Sector 45, Noida, The Trillion in Sector 48, Gurugram, and One42 in Sector 42, Gurugram, Experion Developers became the first real estate developer in India to receive this prestigious designation, reinforcing its leadership in creating future-forward living experiences. This milestone signifies Experion’s championship in designing homes that are not only aesthetically appealing but also scientifically aligned with global standards on buildings advancing health and well-being. Upon construction completion and passing third-party verification of the WELL strategies implemented, a precertified WELL for residential project will achieve certified WELL Residence status.

“Receiving WELL for residential precertification is a proud moment for us,” said B K Malagi, Vice Chairman, Experion Developers. “This recognition under the global WELL program reinforces our commitment to building homes that go beyond aesthetics and luxury to truly support the well-being of our residents. It reflects our belief that homes should be places of comfort, health, and vitality.”

The WELL for residential program is a globally recognized evidence-based, third-party verified framework developed to transform the way homes are designed, built and maintained to support resident health and well-being. It evaluates how health-focused design, operations, and behaviors within the home can enhance human well-being. It covers critical aspects like indoor air and water quality, natural lighting, access to fitness and green spaces, and overall strategies promoting physical and mental well-being.

“As global demand for healthier, more resilient homes continues to grow, creating spaces that actively support well-being has never been more important,” said Prateek Khanna, IWBI Chief Operating Officer. “We applaud Experion’s leadership in putting resident health first and setting a strong example for healthier homes in India.”

As a leading developer in India, Experion prioritizes wellness not as a trend, but as a foundational design principle. Each pre-certified residence integrates WELL features that support healthier lifestyles including:

  • Advanced indoor air quality solutions: Limiting exposure to construction pollution by implementing dust and moisture management strategies, along with installing mechanical exhaust systems, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and enforcing a smoking ban.
  • Water Systems and water quality: Water systems designed with use of certified plumbing materials and regular monitoring and system maintenance; building water treatment devices are maintained for water quality.
  • Fire safety measures: Homes are located in low-risk fire zones and designed to include automatic sprinkler systems.
    Emergency backup power: All homes are equipped with backup power systems in case of emergencies.
  • Thermal comfort: Outdoor spaces include materials and vegetation to help reduce solar heat absorption.
  • Resident wellness guide: An in-home guidebook that educates residents on the health benefits of their built environment and offers practical guides to live better every day.

Experion Elements, The Trillion, and One42 are designed with a strong emphasis on environmental and human health. Experion designed these residences to feature generous green spaces, abundant natural daylight, active lifestyle zones, and an overall infrastructure that promotes physical activity, restfulness, and emotional balance.

At a time when homebuyers are increasingly prioritizing health, safety, and sustainability, Experion Developers is setting a new benchmark in the Indian real estate sector. With this precertification, the company is not only on the path to achieving full WELL Residence status for its projects, but also leading the charge toward responsible, human-centric development.
This achievement reaffirms Experion’s vision of transforming India’s residential landscape by designing homes that empower residents to live well physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Launched in 2024, the WELL for residential program seeks to provide a solution that helps transform the global residential market and ensure that everyone, no matter their background, has access to a home that enhances their health and enables them to make healthier decisions. It is part of IWBI’s WELL ecosystem that comprises WELL Certification under the WELL Building Standard, a library of building and organizational strategies focused on health, the WELL Health-Safety Rating, WELL Performance Rating, WELL Equity Rating, WELL Coworking Rating and certification under the WELL Community Standard. WELL’s holistic, evidence-based approach has provided a roadmap for organizations to promote human and social capital performance and enhance their ESG strategy. As a result, thousands of organizations including nearly 30% of Global and Fortune 500 companies across nearly 140 countries have adopted WELL strategies in nearly 100,000 commercial and residential locations totalling nearly six billion square feet of space.

Farmers are always on the look-out for solutions to boost business efficiency and productivity, and now the CNH brand, Case IH, has launched a new product that promises to be a “game-changer” for many farming operations.

Case IH has launched RS1, the most powerful high-speed steering system in the industry, designed to be fitted to earlier model Case IH machinery to allow for the latest technology around positioning, speed and performance.

For Case IH, RS1 is a result of the acquisition of Raven Industries in 2021, which allowed it to leverage Raven’s 50 years of innovation in the precision agriculture technology space to enhance its machinery offering to Case IH customers.

“We’ve been able to bring this level of technological expertise in-house, which has given us the ability to accelerate the delivery of automated solutions to our customers; faster than we would have been able to through the conventional mechanism of using third parties,” said Jeremy Duniam, Case IH Head of Precision Technology.

RS1 is an intuitive, easy-to-use unit, with exceptional precision at both high and low speeds, improving efficiency and giving the operator the opportunity to cover more ground in a day.

“RS1 is helping modernise the legacy fleet as we go further down the road of increasing automation. This latest technology paves the way for customers to accelerate a lot of this automation around steering, implement control, agronomic data sharing via our FieldOps platform – it’s equipping their older machines with current levels of technology,” Jeremy added.

TACOMA, WASHINGTON, August 19, 2025 /3BL/ — The KeyBank Foundation has announced a grant of $300,000 to Tacoma/Pierce County Habitat for Humanity to support its Housing Counseling program and Building Hope project, both designed to improve financial stability and homeownership among underserved communities.

Through Tacoma Habitat’s Housing Counseling program, HUD-certified housing counselors work one-on-one helping clients learn skills that prepare them for financial stability, including homeownership. This highly successful program has become an incubator for Tacoma Habitat’s homeownership program, with 32 Housing Counseling clients becoming successful Habitat homeowners since the program began four years ago.

With the Building Hope project, Tacoma Habitat has an unprecedented and time-bound opportunity to purchase up to 80 single-family rental homes being divested by the Pierce County Housing Authority. Homes are purchased, renovated, and then sold to buyers earning up to 80% of the area median income. Because Habitat homes are sold under a restricted-resale model, these homes will remain permanently affordable even if the original buyer should choose to sell.

“At KeyBank, our mission is to help our communities thrive, and that means addressing gaps that might prevent our neighbors from building wealth through home ownership,” said Brian Marlow, KeyBank’s Washington State Market President. “Having stable housing is transformational for generations to come, and we have long been impressed with Habitat for Humanity’s impressive model and proven success.”

“This program helps vulnerable homebuyers achieve the self-confidence and financial knowledge needed to purchase an affordable family home,” said I.V. Reeves, Regional Corporate Responsibility Officer. “KeyBank is proud to support the efforts of Habitat for Humanity.”

“We are deeply grateful to KeyBank for their generous investment in affordable homeownership,” said Sherrana Kildun, CEO of Tacoma/Pierce County Habitat for Humanity. “This grant strengthens two impactful initiatives—helping families build financial resilience through housing counseling, and expanding access to permanently affordable homes through the Building Hope renovation project. Together with partners like KeyBank, we are changing the trajectory for families in Pierce County for generations to come.”

ABOUT TACOMA / PIERCE COUNTY HABITAT FOR HUMANITY

Since 1985, Tacoma/Pierce County Habitat for Humanity has been building and renovating affordable homes in Pierce County, helping hundreds of families achieve the dream of homeownership. Households earning up to 80 percent of the area median income partner with Habitat to become homeowners. Each partner household contributes “sweat equity” hours working to build or renovate their own home or the homes of their neighbors. Habitat homebuyers may have access to down payment assistance which helps with affordability, allowing them to achieve long-term financial success and build generational wealth. Since 2022, all homes built or renovated by Tacoma Habitat have been sold under a restricted resale model ensuring the home remains permanently affordable to another income-qualified homebuyer should the original homebuyer choose to sell.

In 2025, KeyCorp celebrates its bicentennial, marking 200 years of service to clients and communities from Maine to Alaska. To learn more, visit KeyBank Heritage Center.

BEDFORD, Mass., Aug. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Thermacell Repellents, Inc., a leader in advanced mosquito and tick repellent technology, has donated 150,000 zone mosquito repellers to Convoy of Hope, a global humanitarian organization serving communities in crisis. Valued at over $4 million, the donation will support relief efforts in disaster-affected regions in the US, particularly areas impacted by hurricanes and severe weather events, where standing water and warm temperatures can create ideal breeding grounds for mosquitoes.

The announcement coincides with National Mosquito Day (August 20th) a day which raises awareness about the impact of mosquitoes, mosquito-borne illnesses, and prevention efforts in vulnerable communities worldwide. Following many disasters, especially hurricanes, mosquito populations can surge dramatically. Hurricanes can produce several inches of rain in just hours, leaving water pooled in ditches, containers, piles of debris, and other areas. Within just a couple of weeks, mosquito eggs can hatch into biting adults, compounding the challenges survivors already face, such as no power, no running water and damaged homes. Beyond the nuisance, some mosquitoes can transmit viruses including West Nile, dengue and Zika.

“Over the past 25 years, Thermacell has been on a mission to liberate people who love the outdoors from the harmful effect of insects. With this donation, we are honored to eliminate one source of worry as we support disaster recovery efforts by delivering coverage and comfort to heroes, families and communities as they rebuild one zone at a time,” said Ashley Larochelle, VP of People & Culture at Thermacell.

Convoy of Hope will integrate Thermacell zone mosquito repellent devices into their disaster relief operations, helping protect survivors and volunteers from mosquitoes as they work to restore homes and infrastructure in the aftermath of devastating storms.

“Convoy of Hope is incredibly grateful for this partnership with Thermacell. Mosquito populations increase following many disasters and create yet another issue for survivors. This donation from Thermacell will help to relieve the mosquito problem for survivors, and give them comfort during a very difficult time.” Ethan Forhetz, VP Public Engagement – National Spokesperson at Convoy of Hope.

Along with the donation, Thermacell is sharing expert tips to help families prepare for and reduce mosquitoes after severe weather:

Before a Storm:

  • Remove or secure any outdoor items that can collect rainwater
  • Clean and unclog gutters so water can drain properly after heavy rain
  • Fill in low-lying areas or holes in the yard where water can pool
  • Trim vegetation near the house to limit shaded areas where mosquitoes rest

After a Storm:

  • Dump out any standing water from containers, gutters, and debris
  • Check for any screen damage, to keep mosquitoes out of your house
  • Cover rain barrels and drains with mosquito-proof netting if possible
  • Maintain cleaned areas weekly, as mosquito eggs can hatch days or weeks after the storm

Thermacell Repellents, Inc., designs, manufactures, and markets zone mosquito repellent and insect control solutions. Thermacell devices have been in the market for over 25 years, with tens of millions sold in more than 30 countries worldwide. For more information, visit www.thermacell.com.

American Dairy Association North East Unveils 57th Annual Sculpture

SYRACUSE, N.Y., Aug. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The curtain has dropped, revealing the 57th Annual American Dairy Association North East Butter Sculpture at the New York State Fair, sponsored by Wegmans. This year’s display, titled “Dairy For Good: Nourish. Grow. Thrive.,” celebrates the joy and nourishment dairy provides at every stage of life — and is inspired by the 125th Anniversary of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its local New York author, L. Frank Baum.

 

The centerpiece is a whimsical hot air balloon, emblazoned with the phrase “Dairy Defies Gravity,” soaring above a winding path that charts life’s journey. Along the way, three butter figures show how dairy powers every chapter — from the very start: a pregnant woman with a glass of milk, a six-month-old enjoying yogurt, and a toddler savoring a piece of cheese.

“This year’s butter sculpture beautifully showcases the power of dairy nutrition,” said John Chrisman, CEO of American Dairy Association North East. “The craftsmanship captures not just a scene, but a story — from nourishing mothers and helping babies grow to supporting thriving toddlers, dairy provides essential nutrients every step of the journey.”

Dairy farmer Jaime Mowry from Mowacres Farms II in LeRoy, NY, marveled at the sculpture. “It’s such a fun and creative way to share an important message. As a mom, I know how critical it is to give kids a healthy start, and milk, cheese, and yogurt are everyday staples in our home. Seeing that message come to life in butter — complete with so many surprising details — makes it all the more memorable.”

Richard A. Ball, New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets Commissioner noted, “Unveiling the Butter Sculpture is one of my favorite traditions at The Fair and a wonderful way to honor the dairy farmers who work tirelessly to feed our families and bring wholesome products to our communities every day. The Butter Sculpture also provides a unique and fun way to introduce fairgoers to and educate them about New York dairy. From the family farms that fuel our economy to the essential nutrients milk provides, dairy plays a fundamental role in keeping us strong and well-nourished.”

“Wegmans is proud to sponsor this year’s Butter Sculpture, which is such an integral part of the New York State Fair,” said Evelyn Ingram, Director of Community Relations at Wegmans Food Markets. “We are delighted to once again be a participant in this long-standing tradition.”

Artists Jim Victor and Marie Pelton of Conshohocken, Pennsylvania constructed the sculpture over an 11-day period onsite using more than 800 pounds of butter from O-AT-KA Milk Products in Western New York. This is the fourth straight year color has enhanced the artistry of the sculpture.

Following The Fair, the butter will be recycled in nearby Linwood, N.Y., at Noblehurst Farms, now celebrating their 10th anniversary of transforming the sculpture into renewable energy. Over the past decade, Noblehurst has recycled a total of 8,000 pounds – or four tons – of butter, preventing it from ending up in a landfill while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and creating enough energy to power one home for about one month.

The sculpture is on display in the Dairy Products Building for the duration of The Fair. Visit americandairy.com/nystatefair for more information.
