Christopher Capobianco, President of New York Surfaces, will present an educational seminar at NEOCON in Chicago on Monday, June 14 at 1:00 PM. He is presenting on behalf of the The Flooring Contractors Association (FCICA), a trade association that he chairs. The session, titled Commercial Floor Covering Demystified, is geared to architects and designers and will stress the benefits of working with a professional flooring contractor.
Specifiers are bombarded by information from many sources when it comes to commercial floor coverings. A professional flooring contractor can provide unbiased product recommendations, substrate testing and preparation, professional installation, project management and initial maintenance. Find out how to take advantage of these services in the most effective way for your project. Leave with a renewed understanding of the specification process for floor covering, including a list of resources available to help create the right specifications for every project. This session is an extension of the vision of FCICA to be recognized by the floor covering, design and construction industries as the commercial flooring contractors organization, providing the highest level of installation expertise, solutions and opportunities to network with industry experts.
Christopher Capobianco has been the organization’s chairman since 2005. He is the president of Christopher Collaborative Inc. (CCI) in Patchogue, NY. CCI includes Flooring Answers; which provides consulting, inspections and training to the industry and New York Surfaces; independent manufacturer's representatives for unique floor covering and interior finish products.
