Thomas
Ricciardelli, president of SelecTech, Inc., will be a speaker at this year’s
ABX Expo at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, 415 Summer Street in
Boston later this month. Ricciardelli’s talk, entitled “Shades of Green in
Flooring” will take place at 11:30am on Wednesday, October 29 on the Learning
Stage section of the Expo.
Based in
Avon, MA, SelecTech, Inc. is a leader in the manufacture of innovative flooring
products from recycled materials--SelecTech flooring products are also 100
percent recyclable. Ricciardelli’s talk will provide examples of “green”
flooring and cover the various attributes that make flooring “green,” including
recycled content, recyclability, VOC emissions, raw material make-up, and
others.
“ABX is the
premier event for people in our industry in our region and it’s an honor to be
invited to speak,” said Ricciardelli. “Green flooring is a relatively new
concept and product in the industry and I’m looking forward to sharing
information about its benefits with Expo attendees.”
Ricciardelli’s
talk will also cover the attributes that contribute to LEED, as well as others
that are not considered under the LEED rating system.
SelecTech’s
presence at ABX 2014 goes beyond Ricciardelli’s presentation. The flooring at
the ABX Innovation Pavilion will be SelecTech’s FreeStyle products. The company
will also have a booth at the Innovation Pavilion.
“There’s no
better place than a conference to experience the difference in flooring between
our flooring and the hard surfaces you find at most conventions,” said
Ricciardelli.
In addition
to being made from recycled materials and 100 percent recyclable, SelecTech
flooring products feature a patented interlocking system—including patented
recycled composite underlayment with interlocking tabs—and require no adhesive
or special tools to install. Utilizing a breakthrough interlocking technology,
SelecTech products completely bypass the need for adhesives and floor prep to
install or replace flooring. This dramatically reduces installation times
because old flooring can be left in place and machinery and furniture does not
have to be completely moved or removed for installation.
In addition,
SelecTech offers anti-static flooring products, specifically the
aforementioned FreeStyle ESD products. This type of flooring is typically
used by industries such as electronics manufacturing, communications,
aerospace, biotech and healthcare where electronics and sensitive data must be
protected.
