But in the future, visitors can expect much more than the usual variety of floor coverings. Deutsche Messe AG has announced that it will be expanding the event's portfolio to include six new product groups for paints, wallpapers, acoustic elements, tiles, and outdoor floor coverings as well as privacy shields and shading elements.

Couristan, a leading manufacturer, importer and distributor of fine area rugs, broadloom and custom carpets for the residential and hospitality markets, has expanded its leadership team by hiring Len Andolino as President. Andolino brings over three decades of sales, product development, strategic planning and merchandising initiative experience in the flooring covering industry.
