March 22, 2023

Our annual State of the Industry Research has been released and something you’ll need to pour a cup of coffee, relax and give yourself some time to dive into the results!

We have launched an incredible dashboard that is fascinating. It’s something we’ve been working on for a few years. To view this report, visit https://dashboard-server.com/WCSOI.

State of the Industry Data

The innovation we’ve been working on is special, because Walls & Ceilings is part of a much larger company, BNP Media, that owns and manages over 100 brands. 

With that kind of power in numbers, it’s exciting to watch innovation spread around the family of publications. That just means we can deliver better for you! 

Let us know what you think of the research!

We are still so excited about our eMagazine. Our art directors and content development team did a top-notch job of creating a fresh, vibrant site that showcases BNP MEDIA’s commitment to the future of online publishing. For those of you that haven’t signed up to receive the eMagazine, don’t miss out on the latest news, products, industry trends and expert opinions from our knowledgeable team of columnists in the wall and ceiling industry. Visit wconline.com, click subscribe under eMagazine, fill out the form, and you’ll be on your way to catching up on the latest trends, products and technology making waves in the wall and ceiling industry.

Another exciting announcement: Walls & Ceilings wants contractors to subscribe to its eMagazine and assorted eNewsletters. Four lucky contractors have a chance to walk away with a brand new HILTI tool. Don’t miss out on this massively great opportunity! HILTI will be donating its SD 5000-22 cordless drywall screwgun, a BX 3-22 concrete nailer, a SCO 6-22 cordless cut-out tool and a EXO-S exoskeleton. HILTI’s tools are of excellent quality and we’re very happy to be working with them again on tool giveaways.

Contractors need to subscribe to W&C’s free eMagazine and eNewsletters for a chance to win.

For more information, visit wconline.com/subscribe-to-win.
