• Long Island-Based Company Reports Increased Interest in Energy-Efficient Insulation and Soundproofing Systems for Residential and Commercial Construction

OCEANSIDE, NY, Jun 09, 2026, ZEXPRWIRE — Spray Foam Insulation USA says demand from contractors, developers, and commercial builders has continued to grow as construction projects place greater focus on energy efficiency, building performance, and long-term operating costs.

The Oceanside-based company, founded in 2015 by construction veteran Jake Herman, has steadily expanded over the past decade from a one-trailer operation to a four-truck business serving residential, commercial, marine, and industrial projects across the Tri-State area.

Company leaders say the increase in contractor partnerships reflects broader shifts happening throughout the construction industry.

“Builders are paying closer attention to insulation now than they did years ago,” Herman said. “It’s no longer just something that gets thrown in at the end of the project. Developers understand it affects comfort, energy costs, moisture control, and the overall performance of the building.”

Spray Foam Insulation USA specializes in open-cell and closed-cell spray foam insulation, soundproofing systems, Monoglass applications, and Rockwool installations. The company works with homeowners as well as general contractors, developers, and commercial property owners.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, heating and cooling account for a major share of energy use in most buildings. Poor insulation and uncontrolled air leakage can increase operating costs and reduce HVAC efficiency.

Herman says more contractors are seeking insulation systems that improve air sealing while helping projects meet modern energy-efficiency standards.

“We’re seeing more builders ask detailed questions about thermal performance and long-term energy savings,” Herman said. “Ten years ago, those conversations were not nearly as common.”

The company reports growing demand for insulation and soundproofing systems in multifamily housing developments, mixed-use buildings, warehouses, and high-end residential projects throughout New York and surrounding areas.

Sound control has become a major priority in many new developments, especially in dense suburban and urban markets.

“Developers want buildings to feel quieter and more comfortable,” Herman said. “We’ve worked on projects where soundproofing became one of the biggest concerns because tenants notice noise immediately.”

Spray Foam Insulation USA says contractors also value scheduling reliability and communication during active construction projects.

“Construction is unpredictable,” Herman said. “Schedules change constantly. Materials get delayed. Weather becomes a problem. The biggest thing is staying responsive and adapting quickly so projects keep moving.”

The company’s growth has largely come through repeat partnerships and referrals within the construction industry. Herman says strong relationships with contractors helped the business expand steadily throughout the region.

“You build trust over time,” he said. “Contractors want to know you’re going to show up, stay on schedule, and handle problems when they come up.”

The company currently services projects ranging from single-family homes to large-scale commercial and industrial properties. Its work spans insulation installation, energy-efficiency upgrades, air sealing, and acoustic control systems.

Herman believes demand for modern insulation systems will continue growing as property owners look for ways to improve efficiency and reduce long-term operating costs.

“People are thinking more about how buildings perform over time,” he said. “Comfort matters. Energy efficiency matters. Operating costs matter. Those conversations are becoming part of almost every project now.”

Despite the company’s expansion, Herman says the business still operates with the same approach it had when it first launched in 2015.

“We started with one trailer and equipment,” he said. “Everything we built came from hard work, consistency, and relationships.”

As construction activity continues throughout the Tri-State region, Spray Foam Insulation USA says it plans to continue expanding its contractor and developer partnerships while maintaining a focus on customer service and project quality.

• Founder Jacob Schmalzle says estate administration can preserve family legacy while continuing support for churches and charitable causes.

Florida, USA, Jun 09, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Spirit of Service (SOS), the faith-based estate executor and trustee organization founded by Jacob Schmalzle, is bringing charitable giving into the estate administration process through a model that donates a portion of executor fees back to churches and nonprofit organizations selected by clients.

The organization, founded in 2025, provides estate executor and trustee services for families navigating probate and trust administration. Under its operating model, Spirit of Service charges no more than the state minimum executor fee of three percent and donates ten percent of collected statutory fees to the client’s church or preferred charity.

According to Schmalzle, the idea came from recognizing that many families already think about stewardship and charitable giving when creating estate plans, but very few consider how probate administration itself fits into that legacy.

“Families spend a lot of time thinking about who receives assets,” Schmalzle said. “Very few think about how the administration process itself could continue supporting the people and causes they care about.”

The model reflects Schmalzle’s personal background and the mission behind Spirit of Service.

Raised in a missionary family, Schmalzle says he grew up around the idea that service and stewardship should work together. Years later, after losing both his father and grandmother within a short period of time, he found himself navigating probate firsthand while grieving.

That experience shaped how he viewed estate administration.

“I realized probate is not just paperwork,” he said. “Families are dealing with grief, legal responsibilities, property issues, financial accounts, and major decisions all at once. The process can feel overwhelming very quickly.”

The experience eventually led him to create Spirit of Service after helping members of his church community with probate planning and executor responsibilities.

Today, the organization works with families, churches, and communities nationwide.

Schmalzle says the charitable component of the business was designed intentionally from the beginning.

“Many churches encourage legacy giving through wills or estate planning programs,” he said. “But once probate starts, families often leave that environment and enter a completely different system. We wanted to create something that kept stewardship connected throughout the administration process.”

According to Giving USA, Americans donated an estimated $557 billion to charitable causes in 2023, including significant contributions through planned giving and estate gifts. Faith-based organizations remain among the largest recipients of charitable donations nationwide.

At the same time, probate administration costs can reduce the overall value passed to heirs and charitable organizations if estates become delayed or inefficiently managed.

Spirit of Service says its structure is intended to help preserve more estate value while also supporting charitable causes selected by clients.

“To us, stewardship includes how efficiently the estate is administered,” Schmalzle said. “The longer things drag out, the more stress and expense families often experience.”

The organization works as a professional fiduciary resource for estates requiring third-party executor or trustee support. Responsibilities may include probate coordination, asset management oversight, communication with beneficiaries, and trust administration.

Schmalzle believes the model also changes how some families think about executor services.

“In traditional probate situations, families often feel like money is simply disappearing into administrative costs,” he said. “We wanted to create a structure where part of that process could continue benefiting churches, ministries, or charitable organizations that mattered to the client.”

Spirit of Service continues expanding through church referral relationships and community partnerships nationwide.

Schmalzle says churches are increasingly looking for practical ways to support members beyond funeral services and emotional care.

“Many families need operational help after a loss,” he said. “Somebody still has to manage deadlines, paperwork, court filings, and distributions. That responsibility doesn’t disappear because people are grieving.”

For Schmalzle, the broader goal is to encourage families to think about estate administration as part of their overall legacy planning process.

“A will is important,” he said. “But stewardship does not end once the document is signed. Somebody still has to carry out the process responsibly.”

Linyi City, China, 8th Jun 2026 – From June 3 to 6, 2026, the International Construction Machinery, Technology and Equipment Trade Fair 2026 (KOMATEK 2026) took place in Istanbul Expo Center, Turkey. As one of Turkey and Middle East’s premier and most specialized industry events, this year’s exhibition brought together hundreds of global enterprises to showcase cutting-edge equipment and technical solutions. It serves as a vital platform linking the Euro-Asian and African markets, while driving industry collaboration.

Under the theme ‘Built-in Quality, Green-Driven Future,’ SDLG made a major impact at the event with its independent showcase of 13 customized, CE-certified products. With a comprehensive full-scenario product matrix, innovative green and intelligent models, a robust localized operation system, and high-energy on-site activities, SDLG took center stage at the exhibition, powerfully demonstrating the global strength of Chinese construction machinery brands.

On the morning of June 3, SDLG hosted a grand opening ceremony and product launch event. Key industry dignitaries, including Su Zimeng, President of the China Construction Machinery Association (CCMA); Zhou Weidong, President of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) Machinery Sub-council; Li Chunsheng, Deputy Secretary-General of CCMA; and Wang Xiaohui, Deputy General Manager of SDLG, attended the event. Together with global customers, local partners, and media representatives, they witnessed the strategic rollout of SDLG’s latest offerings for the Euro-Asian and African markets.

During the opening ceremony, Su Zimeng, President of the CCMA, noted that green and intelligent development has become an irreversible industry trend, emphasizing that expanding global footprints and advancing localized operations are critical to building international competitiveness. He highly commended SDLG’s strategic focus amidst the waves of globalization and green transformation as a key force in China’s construction machinery industry. Su highlighted that the company is steadily upgrading from merely “exporting products” to “exporting full operational systems,” powered by highly competitive, innovative machinery. He expressed his expectations for SDLG to work alongside global partners to build a sustainable industrial ecosystem.

Wang Xiaohui, Deputy General Manager of SDLG, shared how the company, distinguished as the first in the Chinese machinery industry to win the prestigious EFQM Excellence Award, is actively leading industry evolution. In terms of electrification, SDLG has developed a comprehensive new energy roadmap covering pure electric, battery-swapping, cable-powered, and hybrid technologies. Globally, SDLG has established three overseas factories, over 10 overseas warehouses, and more than 20 overseas subsidiaries and representative offices. Addressing the growth of the Turkish market, Wang emphasized that the company will firmly execute its “In Turkey, For Turkey” philosophy, fully driving its localization strategy through its established Turkish subsidiary and warehousing center.

On the product launch event, two flagship models deeply tailored for the Turkish market were officially unveiled. The L958HEV 5-ton pure electric wheel loader targets green and low-carbon demands, boasting zero emissions, low noise, and a long runtime. Delivering a significant advantage in operating costs, it is perfectly suited for high-intensity environments like ports and steel mills, etc. Meanwhile, the E6305H 30-ton all-round excavator is equipped with an advanced electronically controlled hydraulic system. Offering exceptional adaptability, stability, and durability, it fully covers earthmoving, urban construction, and mining infrastructure projects. Both star models precisely match local working conditions and operational needs, drawing intense interest from across the industry.

The 13 exhibited models span two of SDLG’s core product lines, excavators and wheel loaders, providing comprehensive, full-scenario solutions for municipal infrastructure, mining, farming, general construction, etc.

The compact and small excavators offer exceptional flexibility and efficiency, making them ideal for orchards, farms, tight jobsites, and small-scale infrastructure projects. In contrast, the medium and large excavators deliver robust power and precise hydraulic control, excelling in heavy-duty mining and large-scale infrastructure environments. Meanwhile, the brand-new H-series diesel wheel loaders combine low fuel consumption, easy maintenance, and high maneuverability to effortlessly handle Turkey’s most complex working conditions. Striking a perfect balance between high efficiency, energy savings, reliability, and easy maintenance, the full lineup effectively lowers long-term cost of ownership for customers.

On the exhibition floor, SDLG hosted a new partners signing ceremony, establishing strategic partnerships with premier local Turkish distributors. This milestone further enhances the brand’s regional sales and service network, boosting market coverage and service response efficiency.

Driven by its robust product quality and comprehensive equipment solutions, SDLG earned widespread recognition from attendees. During the exhibition, an order-signing ceremony was held, securing cumulative orders for over 120 units, including more than 50 new energy products, with an additional over 200 units in the pipeline. Simultaneously, the SDLG booth featured interactive check-ins, live quizzes, and exclusive giveaways. These engaging activities drew massive crowds, creating a buzzing atmosphere that effectively deepened the brand experience and strengthened connections with users.

Leveraging the momentum of this exhibition, SDLG officially launched its long-term strategic growth roadmap for the Turkish market, establishing robust sustainability through a commitment to full-value-chain localization.

Backed by its established Turkish subsidiary and machine and spare parts warehousing infrastructure, SDLG is accelerating its network expansion across major cities to secure a dual boost in delivery efficiency for both machinery and parts. To closely align with Turkey’s green development trends, the company will continuously iterate its product portfolio around typical local working conditions—enhancing the adaptability of its excavator lineup while actively introducing its flagship 5-ton and 7-ton pure electric wheel loaders to build tailor-made, scenario-based solutions. Furthermore, SDLG is building a professional local team empowered by technical expertise directly from the headquarters to ensure rapid response times for key accounts. Alongside these operational moves, localized commercial and financial support policies will be rolled out to meet diverse partnership needs, fully integrating SDLG into the local industrial ecosystem to drive long-term, stable development.

SDLG remains steadfast in its dedication to technological innovation and green transformation, driving continuous breakthroughs in new energy, intelligence, hydraulics, and electronic control. Today, its products are exported to more than 140 countries and regions worldwide. This highly successful showcase at KOMATEK 2026 marks a pivotal milestone in the seamless integration of SDLG’s globalization strategy and localized operations. Looking ahead, backed by its premium equipment, green solutions, and comprehensive service framework, SDLG will continue to deepen its footprint across Turkey, Eurasia, and Africa. By working hand-in-hand with global partners, the company is committed to empowering regional infrastructure development, fostering sustainability, and continually elevating the global influence of Chinese construction machinery brands.

Newone Exchange, a UK-headquartered digital asset and cryptocurrency trading platform, has registered its U.S. entity, Newone Exchange LTD, bringing operations under U.S. regulatory oversight. The move strengthens the platform’s global compliance network, which spans the UK, U.S., Indonesia, and South Africa. With cold/hot wallet separation, multi-signature security, third-party-audited reserve disclosures, and a high-throughput mobile-first engine, Newone Exchange aims to deliver a secure, transparent, and compliant trading experience worldwide.

Iowa, Iowa, United States, 8th Jun 2026 – Newone Exchange, a global digital asset and cryptocurrency trading platform, today announced the registration of its U.S. entity, Newone Exchange LTD, bringing the company under U.S. regulatory oversight. The move marks a key step in the platform’s pursuit of compliant operations and expanded licensing across international markets.

Headquartered in the UK, Newone Exchange has prioritized regulatory compliance and user asset security since its founding. After obtaining official compliance certification in the UK, the platform has rolled out localized trading services in emerging markets such as Indonesia and South Africa. Its entry into the United States adds another milestone to its cross-border growth.

Entering a Mature Regulatory Market

The United States maintains some of the world’s strictest standards for crypto platforms in compliance, transparency, and asset security. By registering an entity there and accepting U.S. oversight, Newone Exchange signals its readiness to operate within a demanding regulatory environment.

“Accepting U.S. regulation is a commitment to our users worldwide,” a Newone Exchange spokesperson said. “Operating under one of the strictest frameworks shows we can deliver trustworthy services built on transparency, security, and compliance.”

Security and Technology at the Core

Newone Exchange protects user assets through cold and hot wallet separation and multi-signature technology, reducing risk at the architectural level. Its mobile-first interface and high-throughput matching engine ensure stable performance even during high-concurrency trading.

Transparency is another pillar of user trust. The platform conducts regular reserve disclosures verified by independent third-party auditors, addressing the industry’s growing demand for fund transparency.

Aligned with Industry Trends

The global crypto industry is moving rapidly toward compliance and standardization. As regulatory frameworks mature, compliance has become essential rather than optional, and users increasingly value regulatory credentials, asset security, and operational transparency when choosing a platform.

By establishing compliant entities in the UK and the United States while expanding in high-growth markets like Indonesia and South Africa, Newone Exchange is building a global compliance network with both breadth and depth — earning trust through compliance, improving experience through technology, and building reputation through transparency.

Looking Ahead

With its U.S. entity now registered, Newone Exchange plans to continue securing operating licenses in more regions and strengthening its global compliance system. The platform will also invest further in technology, risk control, and user services to deliver a safer, more transparent, and more efficient trading experience for users worldwide.

App offers low-stimulation, play-based educational games that enable families around the world to raise digitally literate children in their heritage or second language

Malta, 8th Jun 2026 — Parlini Land, a multilingual educational app that enables children to learn up to 11 different languages, has launched on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Created for children ages three to eight, Parlini Land offers a library of quality, play-based educational games that feature fun, low-stimulation screen time. Activities on the app include number tracing, spelling, colour and shape recognition, matching, counting, flashcards, puzzles, and more. Parlini Land gives families around the world the ability to raise digitally literate children in their heritage or second language.

“The impetus for creating Parlini Land started when I became a mother,” explained Francesca Borg Bellanti, Parlini Land’s founder. “I noticed a gap that millions of families face but rarely talk about: the internet is overwhelmingly in English. For families who speak another language, whether it’s Arabic, Hindi, Irish, Polish, or Greek, it can be incredibly hard to find screen time that is genuinely engaging, age-appropriate, safe, and educational in their language. That’s the problem we’re solving with Parlini Land.”

Parlini Land is teacher-approved. The app supports language learning in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Greek, Irish, Hindi, Arabic, Swedish, and Polish. The immersive user experience features real human voices (not AI) in the child’s chosen language. The experience is calm and designed for low stimulation. It’s engaging, not addictive. 

Borg Bellanti added, “Parlini Land is for bilingual families, perhaps in diaspora communities, who where parents want to keep a heritage language alive at home. We enable parents to introduce a new language naturally through play. The alternative is to surrender to English being the language of childhood, which is the risk parents face when every game, cartoon, and app a child interacts with is in English.”

United States, 8th Jun 2026 — Professional basketball player and entrepreneur Miles Weber recently reflected on the experiences that have shaped his international basketball career and the continued growth of Fully Feared Sports, an organization focused on helping athletes pursue professional basketball opportunities worldwide.

Over the course of his professional career, Weber has competed throughout North America, Central America, the Caribbean, Europe, and Asia, gaining experience across a wide range of basketball environments and professional systems. His journey has included established leagues, emerging markets, and opportunities that required constant adaptation both on and off the court.

According to Weber, the ability to adjust to new environments has been one of the defining factors behind his longevity and continued success in professional basketball.

“The world is a lot bigger than most people realize,” Weber said. “Every country, league, and experience teaches you something different. Those experiences helped shape both my basketball career and the way I approach business.”

Throughout his career, Weber has experienced firsthand the challenges many athletes face when pursuing opportunities overseas. From navigating unfamiliar cultures and languages to adapting to different styles of play and organizational structures, each experience provided valuable lessons that extended beyond basketball.

As his network continued to expand, Weber began identifying a common issue across multiple markets. Many talented players possessed the ability to compete professionally but often lacked access to opportunities, exposure, or guidance regarding how to navigate the international basketball landscape.

Those observations ultimately contributed to the creation of Fully Feared Sports.

Founded by Weber, Fully Feared Sports is an international basketball organization focused on player placement, career advising, international tours, exposure opportunities, and relationship building throughout the global basketball community. The organization works with athletes, teams, coaches, and basketball stakeholders across multiple regions while helping players better understand the professional basketball market.

“Many players simply need an opportunity to showcase what they can do,” Weber said. “Having gone through that process myself, I understand how important access, information, and visibility can be for an athlete’s career.”

Since its founding, Fully Feared Sports has continued expanding relationships with clubs, leagues, coaches, and basketball organizations throughout various international markets. The organization has worked with athletes pursuing opportunities in Europe, Latin America, Asia, and the Caribbean while continuing to build new partnerships worldwide.

In addition to player placement and consulting services, Fully Feared Sports has organized international tours, exposure events, combines, and basketball opportunities designed to help athletes gain valuable film, professional experience, and connections within the industry. These initiatives provide players with opportunities to compete in front of decision-makers while expanding their professional resumes.

According to Weber, much of the work involved in creating opportunities happens behind the scenes through communication, networking, and relationship building.

“A lot of opportunities begin with a conversation, a connection, or someone willing to open a door,” Weber said. “I’ve spent years building relationships throughout the basketball world. Those relationships have been invaluable not only for my own career but also for helping other athletes pursue theirs.”

Weber noted that his experience as an active professional player provides a unique perspective when working with athletes. Having personally navigated contracts, international transitions, roster changes, and the realities of overseas basketball, he understands many of the challenges players encounter throughout their careers.

That firsthand knowledge continues to influence the organization’s approach to advising athletes and helping them identify opportunities that align with their goals.

Beyond basketball operations, Weber has also continued developing the Fully Feared brand, which reflects principles of perseverance, accountability, adaptability, and personal growth. The brand has grown alongside his basketball career and remains closely connected to the lessons learned throughout his journey as both an athlete and entrepreneur.

Looking ahead, Weber says his focus remains on continuing his professional playing career while further expanding the reach of Fully Feared Sports. Future initiatives include strengthening international partnerships, increasing opportunities for athletes worldwide, and continuing to connect players with organizations seeking talent.

“We’re always looking for ways to create value and open doors for athletes,” Weber said. “The goal is to continue building relationships, expanding opportunities, and helping players take the next step in their careers.”

As both a professional athlete and business owner, Weber continues balancing competition and entrepreneurship while remaining actively involved in the international basketball community. His ongoing work reflects a commitment to helping athletes navigate the professional basketball landscape while creating opportunities across multiple regions of the world.

United States, 8th Jun 2026 — Miles Weber, professional basketball player, entrepreneur, and founder of Fully Feared and Fully Feared Sports, today shared the deeply personal story behind the number “2” that has followed him throughout his basketball career. While fans often associate jersey numbers with style, superstition, or preference, Weber says his choice carries a much deeper meaning rooted in family, faith, resilience, and purpose.

For Weber, who has competed professionally throughout Latin America, Europe, Asia, and the Caribbean, the number serves as a daily reminder of the two men who helped shape him long before basketball became a profession.

“I wear #2 in honor of my two grandfathers,” Weber said. “They are my two reasons to keep going. No matter how difficult the road gets, how many setbacks I face, or how uncertain things become, they remind me to stay resilient and keep moving forward. Whenever I’m facing adversity, I think about the sacrifices they made, the values they instilled in me, and the belief they had in me long before anyone else did. That’s why quitting has never been an option.”

Both grandfathers played significant roles in Weber’s upbringing and were among the earliest influences in both his life and athletic journey.

On his mother’s side, Thomas Green briefly played basketball at the University of Illinois and became one of Miles’ biggest supporters, attending games throughout his childhood and encouraging him to pursue the sport he loved.

On his father’s side, Harry Weber shared a lifelong passion for sports with his grandson. Whether it was attending games live or sitting together at home watching on television, sports became a bond that connected generations. From Chicago Bulls games to Chicago Bears Sundays, some of Miles’ favorite memories were created alongside both of his grandfathers. They watched countless games together, talked sports for hours, and shared a love for competition that helped shape his outlook on life.

Basketball, in particular, became something that connected all three of them.

“I was incredibly fortunate to have both of them in my life,” Weber said. “I wouldn’t be the player I am today or the man I’ve become if it wasn’t for my grandfathers and the positive examples they set. They taught me how to work hard, treat people the right way, stay humble, and keep pushing forward no matter what life throws at you. They supported me, believed in me, and shared my love for sports and basketball. Some of my favorite memories are simply sitting with them watching games, talking basketball, breaking down players, and spending time together. We bonded through sports, especially basketball, and that’s something I’ll carry with me forever.”

Both grandfathers passed away around the same time during Weber’s freshman year where he was at Western Kentucky University, making it one of the most difficult periods of his life. The loss forever changed his perspective and strengthened his commitment to honoring them through the way he lives, competes, and carries himself.

When Weber got his first tattoo, he chose to honor both men by placing their names on his arm alongside the Bible verse that was read at each of their funerals.

“My tattoos and my #2 jersey serve as a permanent reminder of where I came from,” Weber said. “No matter where basketball takes me, I carry them with me. Every practice, every game, every country I’ve played in, they’re still part of the journey.”

Today, that same mindset continues to drive Weber both on and off the court. Throughout a professional career spanning multiple continents, he has built a reputation for resilience, adaptability, and finding opportunities where others see obstacles. From navigating different cultures and leagues to building businesses and helping athletes create opportunities of their own, the lessons passed down from his grandfathers remain at the center of everything he does.

Away from the game, Weber is the founder of Fully Feared and Fully Feared Sports. Built from his own experiences navigating professional basketball, the brands represent perseverance, faith, accountability, and the willingness to keep moving forward despite uncertainty.

Through Fully Feared Sports, Weber has helped create opportunities for hundreds of athletes worldwide through player placement, career advising, international tours, and partnerships with clubs and leagues across multiple countries. His mission is to help athletes gain access to opportunities he understands firsthand can change lives.

“The number 2 reminds me that nothing worthwhile comes easy,” Weber said. “It’s a reminder to stay grateful, stay humble, keep working, and never forget the people who helped me get here. Everything I do today—whether it’s basketball, business, or helping other players—is rooted in those lessons.”

For Weber, the meaning of #2 has never changed.

It is not about statistics.

It is not about recognition.

It is about remembering where he came from, honoring the people who believed in him first, and carrying their legacy forward every single day.
