TMT America—the parent company of Schönox HPS and Küberit USA—along with Trissl Sports Cars, invited flooring professionals from across the country to drive Porsches at more than 100 miles per hour at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Ala. The event capped off a meeting earlier in the week at Schönox HPS’s Florence, Ala., Support Center, where participants learned more about Schönox and Küberit products.
“We wanted our colleagues to take away incredible memories with hands-on experiences driving Porsches, doing incredible things they never before thought possible,” explained Thomas Trissl, Schönox HPS principal and TMT America president. “In a similar way, we wanted them to go home with a deeper understanding of Schönox and Küberit solutions.”
The Porsche Track Experience places participants in Porsches on a world-class track, learning quickly with the aid of expert drivers, while safely testing their limits. Before getting behind the wheel, attendees were educated about the research, technology and continual testing that goes into each Schönox subfloor product. Küberit USA team members then joined the group, relaying the newest floor, wall, and stair profile products and design trends.
“While attending the week’s events, I was struck by the similarities between a lifestyle in commercial flooring and the lifestyle of a Porsche driving enthusiast; with neither pursuit being one you just meander through,” noted Mark Bischoff, Starnet president & CEO. “Thomas Trissl employs best-in-class people development and training to create a brand experience greater than the product elements. The Schönox HPS and Kuberit teams display the intensity and focus on the fundamentals that our commercial flooring business requires.”
“This was a first-class event with time to bond with other flooring professionals in a fun and unique environment while learning more about Schönox and Küberit,” added Geoff Gordon, executive director, Fuse Commercial Flooring Alliance. “It was a one-of-a-kind experience that no one will ever forget.”
