A few weeks ago, George Osborne announced his budget plans for 2014. Whilst he didn’t talk directly about our sector, he painted a positive picture for manufacturing and industry as a whole, saying that the economy was growing again, jobs were being created across the country and that the government wanted to offer their support.
Here at Tomorrow’s Flooring, we aren’t planning on cutting anything anytime soon! We’ve been settling into our new offices, visiting shows like EcoBuild and the Ideal Home Show, hitting the road to view your new launches, products and initiatives, and launching our first ever Pinterest account; find out more in this month’s Spotlight feature on page 18.
Our Educational Venues section has been a popular one this month; in it, we bring you an exposé on the Priority School Building Programme from the perspective of the flooring industry, and a detailed look at how Flowcrete can provide solutions for every square inch of a school, college or university, no matter how many different zones it may incorporate. This section runs alongside two others, as usual; Alternative Materials and Smoothing Underlayments.
