Announcements

The parent company of Ceramic Technics purchased Stone Source in 2022, but the combined group has just formally announced (March 2023), that they will operate under the STONE SOURCE branding moving forward.

The long time rep with Ceramic Technics has joined TileBar, and will be focusing on specific national accounts.  While no longer active in the day to day world of local A&D community representation, her profile remains on the site and she can be reached if needed.

Susan Honiotes has joined Formica as their DC, Maryland and Virginia sales rep.  

Tracy Lewis, the DC area rep for Wolf Gordon, has parted ways with the company.  While the company looks for a replacement, their Account Management Team will be fielding samples requests and the like via amt@wolfgordon.com. 

Mark Hill, who represented Architex for quite a long time, has joined Momentum as the rep for DC, Nothern VA, and suburban Maryland.

Glenn Schatzel is no longer with Formica.  No background as to the how or why is known at this time, and inquiries will need to go to Kate Elmer, who is the A&D Manager in the Northeastern region.  Her info is in the RepSearch database.

The ZOLATONE coatings brand has ended operations.  The parent company of ZOLATONE also owns SCUFFMASTER, which remains in operation and has many similar products.

The parent company of Ceramic Technics has acquired Stone Source.  The practical result of this will be that depending on the firm, both groups will be represented by a single rep - Tara Gardiner,  Nancy Burns, or Tom Shiner. 

The long-time, well respected and almost universally liked rep, Scott Brogan passed away in May of this year.  While no official news is available, it is assumed that his veneer and glass lines will no longer be available.

Amy Smeigh is no longer with Best Tile.  The circumstances of departure are not known, nor have we heard if Amy has taken a new position.  The point of contact for A&D inquiries in the mean time should be directed to LEE DAVIS.
