AWFS Fair Deals a Full House for Synergy Thermal Foils
August 2015
We just returned from the sold-out AWFS Fair where we rolled the dice and displayed at our own exhibit booth in Las Vegas for the first time.
Boy, are we ever glad we did!
Show organizers say more than 10,500 wood products professionals registered to attend the show. That’s a whopping 15% increase from the 2013 show!
We entertained a steady stream of woodworkers at our booth over the four days of the show. They seemed genuinely enthused to learn more about what Synergy Thermal Foils has to offer, especially our matching American 3D laminate (3DL) programs for thermally fused laminates (TFL) and high pressure laminates (HPL).
One of our new products that generated the most buzz was Memento 3DL. It matches Uniboard’s Memento (H67), a TFL featuring Uniboard’s Rio texture. We learned at the show, that KML will soon be carrying Memento as a new addition to its Edgewood TFL collection to serve west coast customers. Our Memento is also a perfect match with Lamitech’s Rustico HPL (1464).
Another new product that drew a lot of attention was our Milk Chocolate 3DL that matches the Milk Chocolate TFL (L493) made by Tafisa, another one of our Canadian partners. Milk Chocolate is a new design flavor of teak and is part of Tafisa’s Urbania textured TFL collection.
We’ve got our work cut out following up to all of the inquiries we received at our booth. Needless to say, we already plan to be back – in our own booth – at the AWFS Fair in 2017!
