Hello and welcome to the April/May issue of Tomorrow’s Tile & Stone magazine!


This issue is an exciting one for us as we get to reveal all on the top ten winners of the TTS Awards 2019. If you’ve been following our social media channels, you may already know which companies made it into the top three but you can now find out why people voted for them, as well what the companies themselves had to say about the accolades. The response we’ve had to this year’s Awards has been great and I would like to use this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all of our finalists and to everyone who voted.


At the end of April, swarms of tile and stone industry professionals will descend on London’s ExCel for the 2019 edition of the Natural Stone Show. Now in its 25th year, this event is set to be the biggest yet as it partners with Hard Surfaces to offer even more for visitors. Check out our Show Preview section to discover more about who and what you can see there.
