Insulation Contractors Association of New York

The Insulation Contractors Association of New York (ICA of New York) is the leading management association representing commercial and industrial insulation contractors. ICA of New York exists primarily to promote the use of Local 12 ICA contractors, and secondarily to negotiate with Local 12 on behalf of its members. ICA of New York was incorporated in 1976, faithfully advocating for New York contractors for over 45 years. We are organized by an Executive Board of directors that sets negotiations for contracts and steers the organization. We serve small and large Union commercial and industrial insulation contractors in the insulation industry located in the New York Metropolitan region including New York City, the 5 Burroughs and Long Island. At ICA of New York, we are advocates for our members in order to instill smarter, safer and economical work environments for all parties. Does this sound interesting to you?
