Hailed as the ultimate tile and stone experience, where more than 1, 200 exhibitors from over 65 countries showcase their newest and most notable products, and where a jam-packed schedule of 75 free seminar sessions are conducted—most offering CEU credits, Coverings attracts a diverse constituency. Architects and interior designers, builders and remodelers, distributors and retailers, fabricators and installers comprise the 33, 000+ attendees. This year, though, more than ever before, these professionals will find that their trade associations are aggressively endorsing the show, taking on sponsorship roles and forging other types of partnerships. Coverings, the premier international trade show and conference dedicated exclusively to showcasing the newest in ceramic tile and natural stone, has grown to be the largest and most important show of its kind. Coverings features 1, 200 exhibitors from more than 65 countries and attracts more than 33, 000 distributors, retailers, fabricators, contractors and specifiers, architectural and design professionals, builders and real estate developers, plus the press and journalists who cover this vital and growing industry. Coverings is the stage for introducing some of the most innovative products in the world related to tile and stone. The exposition also serves as a valuable resource for continuing education for all categories of attendees, with informative, accredited seminars and live demonstration sessions conducted throughout the four days. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Exhibition News :: home page |
