W&C was able to talk with some of the new exibitors at the 2018 INTEX Expo, the largest trade show specifically catering to the wall and ceiling industry showcasing the latest and greatest products, services and solutions, specifically market segments such as drywall, ceilings and acoustics, lath and metal framing, plaster, EIFS, insulation, software, etc.

 

W&C: Are you making any company or product announcements?

Klein: Yes, we have passed new UL 2079 v.5 test standards which has greatly affected other current methods now requiring additional labor/materials leaving us as the "stand alone" product for dynamic joint protection 

W&C: What’s the best or most unique thing about your booth?

Klein: "Productioneered" life safety, (fire, smoke, sound) that is unencumbered, experiences no fatigue for life of assembly, accommodates up to 2.00" of deflection all while reducing fragmented and congested labor issues improving job site safety and schedule

 

W&C: What drew you to exhibit at INTEX this year specifically?

Strosahl: We are targeting the one-step drywall/acoustical distributors who will resale to the contractors. We need to show our product to the contractors to let them know of our product and stir some interest from them. If we can get contractors to “accept” our product, or better yet “request” our product, our sales will grow!

 

W&C: Are you making any company or product announcements?

Agoglia: My acoustical reveal edge tile cutter.

W&C: What’s the best or most unique thing about your booth?

Agoglia: My booth will have all three models and live demos of tiles.

 

W&C: What are you most looking forward to getting out of the show?

Ogilby: We always enjoy visiting with customers face-to-face and getting the opportunity to hear firsthand about the impact our software has on their business. We’re also looking forward to making new connections and learning more about the unique estimating challenges and opportunities facing the companies in attendance.

W&C: What’s the best or most unique thing about your booth?

Ogilby: Our booth rocks. We’re setup to host one on one and group demonstrations, plus we’ve got plenty of seating for anyone with tired feet. Aside from our top-rated, industry-leading software, the most unique thing about our booth is probably our charging table. Visitors love that they can charge their phone or tablet while learning more about STACK.
