Registration for the FloorTek Expo, taking place Oct. 18 through 20 in Dalton, is now open.

FloorTek is an opportunity for both domestic and international exhibitors to showcase innovative products and design trends. Industry professionals share best practices in working sessions designed to improve productivity, highlight manufacturing advances and present the latest in flooring covering technology.

Wanda Ellis, executive director of the American Floorcovering Alliance, said she’s particularly enthusiastic about this year’s Expo because of recent changes in the economic climate. “A rising urban population and a resurgence of construction in developing economies is contributing to renewed enthusiasm in the flooring industry. It’s estimated that this market will exceed 330 billion dollars by 2020.”

According to Ellis, the Expo is unique in that it provides opportunities to strengthen both global and domestic partnerships.
