The subfloor needs in the multifamily and single family residential markets are vast in scope and growing. HPS Schönox is showing this week at the NAHB International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Florida presenting a full range of subfloor products that will help builders and renovation contractors address the toughest residential subfloor issues. With more than 26 million apartments in the United States and the consistent need for their renovation and turnover, Schönox has developed subfloor products targeted at this important market. . . .

Concrete Exchange has partnered with HPS Schönox to provide the full line of Schönox subfloor products. Headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, Concrete Exchange will distribute Schönox moisture mitigation systems and primers, patching and smoothing products, floor leveling compounds, adhesives, and waterproofing materials. “Our design and innovation focus in the use of concrete for high-style décor elements has led us to consider other areas where that focus is of value for our customers,” explained Mike Heidebrink, CEO, Concrete Exchange. “The ability to support our customers’ flooring and subflooring projects via a partnership with Schönox was a natural and important extension of our business.”. . .

HPS Schönox announced important additions to its sales and technical support team.

Cooper is based in Pennsylvania where he will support Schönox in New York, New Jersey, and Eastern Pennsylvania.
