Hey Stoners!
From silicosis liability and insurance questions to packed workshops and industry leadership, this briefing covers the conversations shaping the stone business.
We will take a closer look at the reported $67.7 million verdict involving Caesarstone and Primus Marble, including how the jury divided responsibility and why that allocation does not necessarily equal the final amount paid.
Also in this episode:
• MSI’s Q+ collection in our sponsor spotlight.
• The SFA’s Missouri workshop and its turnout of more than 230 attendees.
• The upcoming Poseidon Tampa Experience with the Latin American Fabricators Network.
• Newly elected NSI directors Ana Correia, Peter Dominguez and Alexander Zambrano.
• Stone Chatter’s planned Fabricator of the Year candidate interviews.
• The latest logged quartz quota status, California’s proposed silica restrictions, and upcoming insurance and earnings developments.
Plus, Did You Know? Olympic curling stones combine two granites from Ailsa Craig, each selected for a different job.
What is getting the most attention in your business right now: worker protection, insurance, material choices or improving operations? Tell us in the comments.
Stone industry news. Solid facts. A little
