Become a certified OBIC installer
OBIC products are in demand throughout the United States and beyond. In addition to building an installer network in the U.S., we are also looking to expand our team globally. Contractors and applicators wanting to become installers need to have a desire to learn the sewer lining repair industry and have the ability to manage their own sales and marketing campaigns.
