The person behind Floornet.
I write this in the year that marks my 40th year in the flooring industry. Hard to believe that all that time has passed and I’ve spent all my working life in one industry sector, and scarily working with some that I’ve known the entire time. Just goes to show that either the flooring business is something that gets into your bloodstream and you enjoy, or it’s truly a double life sentence.
For the most part, I still really enjoy working in a business where you get to see the visual result of the work that goes into each project. Floornet is really the culmination of all my experience in the industry, seen from every angle, specification sales, marketing, manufacturing, distribution, and contracting. My clients have ranged from the homeowner’s personal requirements to working on some of the largest projects in the UK over the years. Whilst for the last 25 years this has been in the wood-based products market I have experience with carpet tiles, broadloom carpets, and wood coatings along with all the ancillary products that go into system specification.
Floornet represents products, collections and companies that I want to work with, that I have confidence in, and above all enjoyment from. As I move toward the final phase of my journey I look forward to working with like-minded professionals and people who still really understand the true value in both the material and characters that make up our industry and client base.
