White further assured attendees that: "The High Performance Coatings segment of our business has been growing rapidly in recent years and we offer solutions for all industries and projects of all sizes, and pride ourselves on providing the widest selections of world class products through our partnerships with top international brands like International Paint and Flowcrete." Steve Vickers, Regional Manager of International Paint presented on the price of paint focusing on volumes by solids vs. labour expenses while Chris Vaughn, Technical Sales Manager for Flowcrete North America reviewed case studies of major projects completed in North America and the Caribbean, (some of which include Coca-Cola and the Norman Manley Airport in Jamaica) and introduced a range of new flooring products. The presentations were well received by the attentive audience and resulted in appointments to follow up with technical assistance and specifications on a number of proposed projects.
