In September 2020 –we unveiled a new GE Silicones showroom at the PGP Design Center in Dallas, Texas.
The showroom is a dedicated space for architects and designers to discover more about the GE Silicones product line, while providing a dedicated center for local customer education and training.
The Launch Events
The space was unveiled on 23rd September, when our Construction Sealants team held a specialist training event on the GE Elemax™ Air and Water Barrier system with distributor, All-Tex Supply. After a 30-minute presentation by Abel Macias, Senior ADE and some hands-on application training, the attendees enjoyed some Texas BBQ together.
On Wednesday 24th, we followed up with a specialist manufacturer’s event, presenting our new GE UltraGlaze™ high strength structural glazing sealant to more than 50 attendees including potential customers from across the region and even as far away as Colorado. We also provided the prizes for a networking dinner – including hats, coozies and Yeti coolers, before watching the Astros vs Rangers game together with guests.
Feedback on the new space has been extremely positive, and we made some fantastic new connections at our first events. The showroom will now remain in place for visitors to the center over the coming years.
