Hello and welcome to the June/July issue of Tomorrow’s Tile & Stone!


Whilst it is important to keep up with trends, industry updates and product launches when you work in the tile and stone sector, one thing that should be given equal consideration is the safety and comfort of yourself and your employees. In our Tiling Tools & Workwear section, you can find a variety of expert guidance on PPE, footwear and clothing to help you protect yourself, your colleagues and, in turn, your business and its reputation. Also in this section, we have advice from National Flooring Equipment on selecting the appropriate tools for floor preparation.


In this age of social media, image is more important than ever and, as a business, providing something that will help your client stand out from the crowd can only be a positive thing. Offering inspiration on unique tile pieces and stonework, our new section focusing on Bespoke Projects is bursting with case studies and advice from big names such as Caesarstone and stoneCIRCLE.

Elsewhere, we also take a look at what the experts have to say on the latest stone-effect designs and Stone & Ceramic Warehouse’s Wes Palmer is in the hotseat answering the TTS Ten Questions.
