The Industry Makes Plans for Surfaces ‘07

Dallas, TX, November 1, 2006--With the record-breaking success of Surfaces 2006, the floor covering industry is already making plans to attend Surfaces 2007. Attendee registration, which opened in September, is 30% ahead of this time last year, and registrations continue to pour in each day. In addition, hotel reservations are up 20% from this time last year. This early enthusiasm proves that floor covering professionals realize Surfaces is so much more than a trade show. It’s the must-attend industry event for 2007. Surfaces 2007, which takes place February 7-9 at the Sands Expo & Convention Center, is on pace to be one of the biggest and best events to date. Close to 40,000 attendees will be at Surfaces 2007 to see more than 1,000 exhibiting companies, learn from industry experts at the 2007 Conference Program and attend live installation demonstrations at the Installation Showcase. At Surfaces 2007, retailers, distributors, architects, designers, builders and installers can expect to see a huge selection of the latest floor covering fashions, tools and technology. From carpet and ceramic tile to hardwood and specialty flooring, Surfaces 2007 has everything floor covering professionals need for their business success. Surfaces will once again feature top-notch education led by industry experts. The 2007 Conference Program will offer 42 conference sessions in five targeted tracks – Marketing, Business, Sales, Design and Installation – with timely topics taught by the industry’s best instructors.

The Installation Showcase is FREE to all Surfaces attendees. For more information, visit www.Surfaces.com. As always, it’s easy to register and make travel arrangements for Surfaces. Registration and housing arrangements can be completed at www.Surfaces.com. Attendees who register by January 8, 2007 get FREE exhibits admission and discounted pricing on the Conference Program. There is a variety of hotel prices to accommodate every budget. Some hotels are already sold out, so it’s important to book housing now while the best selection is still available.
