Positive vibes at StonExpo/Marmomacc Americas 2012
Held January 24 to 26 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV, StonExpo/Marmomacc Americas 2012 was a universal success. The exhibitor hall floor had consistently strong traffic, and the event’s extensive seminar program saw solid attendance from its beginning on January 23 to the event’s final day.
Co-located with Surfaces, the largest floor covering show in North America, the overall event saw a slight increase in attendance, according to the show’s organizer, Hanley Wood. But going beyond numbers, the buzz on the exhibit floor was stronger than it has been in years, with all types of industry suppliers — from machinery to tooling and accessories to stone — reporting that they were seeing brisk business at the show.
