Coverings is just around the corner, and the Tile Council of North America (TCNA) will be joining us in Chicago. Check out what they’ve got in store for McCormick Place next week:

The North American Pavilion will be the central hub for TCNA, and will feature everything from tools for installers to the clay and presses used to make tiles. The Art Tile Village will also showcase the artisan side of the industry, including restoration tiles, pop art and more.  At the Installation Materials District (Booth 8149), you can learn about innovative new product applications, like curbless shower systems, heated floor systems, linear drains and more.

As a foremost advocate for developing standards for tile and stone products, TCNA will also host a live demo stage, where you can see product launches, participate in hands-on demos, learn installation techniques, and win great prizes! At the Info & Hospitality Hub (Booth 7325), you can also pick up a complimentary digital copy of the 2016 TCNA Handbook, which is filled with over 185 methods for installing tile and stone. Contractors can also sign up for guided tours at the Contractors Lounge (Booth 8539), with tours held on Tuesday and Wednesday.

In the North American pavilion you can also enjoy an authentic Mexican lunch at 11:30 a.m. Monday – Wednesday at the Info & Hospitality Hub (Booth 7325). Extended happy hours will begin at the same location starting at 3:30 p.m., also Monday – Wednesday. Stop by, grab a drink, and network with fellow professionals!
