Cosentino To Celebrate "A Taste Of Dekton" At Cosentino Centers

Taste of Dekton
June 9, 2016

NEW YORK, NY — Cosentino, a global leader in natural stone, quartz, recycled and architectural surfacing, will host "A Taste of Dekton," a series of refreshing events taking place at their 29 regional Cosentino centers, from June to August. Architects, designers, builders, tile contractors, fabricators and consumers are invited to visit their local Cosentino center for a first look at the newest introductions to the Dekton product line. Select markets will also feature two colors of Etchings, the latest additions to the Silestone Influencer series designed by the Silestone Trendspotters.

"This national event series will not only illustrate Cosentino's development in the diverse color offerings for Dekton, but will reiterate the unique performance capabilities this innovative surfacing material offers," said Lorenzo Marquez, vice-president of marketing for Cosentino North America.

In addition to featuring Dekton ultra-compact surfacing color additions, including the expansion of the XGloss collection, the event will formally introduce the Dekton large-format tile program. "A Taste of Dekton" will also include creative live demonstrations showcasing the performance benefits of the material. Ice-cream and toppings will be mixed directly on Dekton surfacing, illustrating the material's durability and resistance to scratching and extreme temperature changes.

 

"A Taste of Dekton" events will take place on the following dates:

 

June 7: Kansas City, KS

June 8: Rochester, NY

June 9: Fort Lauderdale, FL; Philadelphia, PA; Toronto, ON; Vancouver, Canada; Sterling, VA; Westchester, NY           

June 15: Norfolk, VA; San Francisco, CA                

June 16: Minneapolis, MN; Los Angeles, CA; Atlanta, GA; Austin, TX; Boston, MA; Calgary, AB; Detroit, MI; New York, NY          

June 21: Anaheim, CA; Seattle, WA 

June 22: Cincinnati, OH; Fairfield, NJ; Sacramento, CA      

June 23: Charlotte, NC; Orlando, FL; San Diego, CA

July 14: Portland, OR

August 11: Denver, CO

August 25: Chicago, IL         

 

Silestone Trendspotters will attend the following events to showcase the Silestone Etchingscollection:

Los Angeles, CA– Christopher Kennedy

New York, NY – Drew McGukin

Toronto, Canada – Theresa Casey

Members of ASID and IDC in attendance, and who make a charitable donation, will be entered into a raffle to win a trip to Spain to visit the Cosentino global headquarters.

 

Attendees can RSVP by visiting northamerica.cosentinocenter.com/events and searching for each center's event by city.

Such events highlight the critical role regional Cosentino centers play in the relationship between the brand and its customers. Each center supports, promotes and educates consumers and the regional architecture and design community by bringing trend conversations to life in an interactive environment, as well as showing the full portfolio of Cosentino brands. In addition, the same Dekton demonstrations will also be shared with restaurant industry luminaries at the 15th edition of the "World's 50 Best Restaurant" awards program, of which Cosentino is a sponsor, in New York City on June 13.
