George C. Keefe, Encasement Guy is a sought after consultant, lecturer, author and writer of technical papers. He has over 35 years experience in the coatings, painting, specialty contracting, indoor environmental remediation, risk management and specification writing industries. He is considered one of the pioneers and leading experts on management-in-place as a primary alternative to removal and replacement of building components including hazardous materials. He is CEO and Founder of the International Corporation, GLOBAL Encasement, Inc. (GEI), a pro-planet company with green coatings that help protect the environment while providing solar reflective, energy/money saving roofing, waterproofing and abating hazardous materials.
​
Mr. Keefe originated and developed green encasement coating systems for application over asbestos and lead based paint in the early 1990s because he often found himself on jobsites where there was an overreaction to asbestos, even though the useful building material was in good shape doing what it was originally intended to do. He authored the book “Just Encase They Think You’re Stupid“, a guide for Managing Asbestos and Lead-Based Paint, and numerous technical papers on applications for encasement green coatings.
