With a vision to provide resources and opportunities to recruit, retain and advance women in the stone industry, Women In Stone has created several videos to promote positions in the natural stone industry.
For those of us who sell stone, we know it's a big deal to safely handle and store materials, because the products we work with every day are heavy and dangerous. That’s why the safety of workers and visitors should always be the top priority.
With safety in mind, The International Surface Event (TISE) is set to take place in Las Vegas, NV, the first week of February, and the Natural Stone Institute discusses the new natural stone pavilion
Dana Teague, vice president of the design group for Informa Markets, and Jim Hieb, chief executive officer of the Natural Stone Institute, recently took time to talk with Stone World about this year’s upcoming show.
Stone World, in partnership with the Natural Stone Institute, has resumed its in-person Stone Summits for 2021. The first one launched in Ohio in July followed by Pennsylvania in August.
Over the past two months, I have to say I have logged in more than my fair share of steps. Between TISE and Coverings, I definitely walked a lot and remembered what trade shows can do to your feet.
I recently returned from Las Vegas to attend TISE. I must admit, a few months ago when I made the decision to go I was excited but still a little apprehensive. But by the time I was in the airport, I suddenly enjoyed the feeling of being “normal” again. And once I entered the Mandalay Bay, it felt good to be back.
As we head into summer, I have to say that the future is looking brighter. Life is starting to feel more like it did pre-pandemic. I am excited that in a few weeks I will be traveling to Las Vegas for The International Surface Event (TISE).
The Natural Stone Institute, in partnership with Stone World, held one of its regularly scheduled virtual Stone Summits on April 14, 2021. The topic of quartzite proved to be a “hot” issue among fabricators, as it drew record-breaking numbers of attendees.
