Why Coverings 2025 is a Must-Attend Event

coverings Feb 21, 2025

As women continue to shape and lead the flooring industry, spaces that foster connection, education, and empowerment are more crucial than ever. Coverings 2025 is one such event that champions innovation and excellence in tile and stone—and this year, it’s making an even greater impact with the return of the Galvanize Women’s Lounge.

What is Coverings?

For over 30 years, Coverings has been the premier international trade show dedicated to ceramic tile and natural stone. It gathers industry leaders, designers, contractors, retailers, and distributors from across the globe to explore new trends, build relationships, and elevate the industry. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, an installer, or a business leader, Coverings offers a wealth of insights and networking opportunities to help grow your career and business.

The Galvanize Women’s Lounge

Women are breaking barriers and to support this evolution, Coverings 2025 features a dedicated Women’s Lounge—a space designed to foster dialogue, mentorship, and collaboration among women in the industry.

What You Can Expect:

  • Networking Opportunities: Connect with other women in flooring, share experiences, and build powerful relationships that can lead to new opportunities.

  • Expert Panels & Discussions: Hear from leading women in the field who will share strategies on leadership, overcoming challenges, and thriving in the industry.

  • Mentorship & Support: Whether you’re new to flooring or a seasoned pro, the Women’s Lounge offers a space to learn from and support one another.

  • A Place to Recharge: Trade shows can be overwhelming, and the Women’s Lounge provides a space to step away, refocus, and engage in meaningful conversations.
