Tony Hogg, Managing Director Middle East for the Ashford Formula was recently featured in ConstructionWeekOnline.com magazine citing the sealing benefits of the Ashford Formula.
The article focuses on the ever-changing construction industry in the Middle East and explores the benefits and "future of precast in the Middle East."
The Marketing Department recently compiled all Ashford Formula literature into a single, complete "suite" for easier accessibility and distribution through various electronic mediums.
Each brochure may be downloaded individually or together as a whole. We hope that this will increase the flexibility of distributing Ashford Formula literature and reduce the need for hard copy literature now and in the future. By doing so, we will also be helping the environment, which is always an added incentive!

This past Friday, Curecrete Distribution, Inc. celebrated Halloween with a very fun and festive Halloween office luncheon in the conference room. Thanks to Sheri-Ann (Marketing Director), Laura Clark (Sales & Corporate Accounts Assistant), Amanda Arnold (Purchasing Clerk) and Linda Beckman (Operations Assistant), the conference room was transformed into a dark dungeon with tons of cobwebs and mysterious bubbling potions of every color!
Everyone dined on hot soup and chili, along with a few tasty salads and warm, delicious bread sticks and rolls! To make it even sweeter, there was pumpkin pie and fresh whipped cream, peanut butter brownies, doughnuts, homemade fruit cobbler, cupcakes and pumpkin whoopie pies filled with cream cheese butter cream. As if things couldn't get any sweeter, Curtis Turnbull (RetroPlate National Accounts Representative) made a huge batch of his famous homemade root beer complete with dry ice for special effects! Everyone agreed it was probably the best root beer they'd ever had!
The highlight of the party was when Jerry and Calleen Jones strolled in as a biker couple complete with leather jackets and helmets! It was certainly an awesome sight to see.
Here are a few pictures from our party. I hope you all had a fun and cheerful Halloween with lots and lots of candy!

Curecrete Distribution, Inc. is proud to acknowledge the achievements of Derin Demirsoy who won the 2009 Show Jumping Grand Prix in Salzburg, Austria. Derin, only 15 years old, competed in the 16-25 age division with his horse Murano Surprise.
"A sensation was his victory! Derin Demirsoy today saw the European Youngster Cup not only because of his young age of only 15 years for attention but also because of his performance on the course. In the saddle of his 10-year-old son Murano Surprise, he proved not only talent but also feel for distance and speed. The only Nullfehlerritt brought the first victory in the European Youngster Cup S ** and a lot of attention to the professional audience." (As reported on www.eycup.eu)
Derin is the son of Emir Demirsoy, international distributor for the Ashford Formula in Turkey. Congratulations Derin for a job well done! We are very proud of you!
The Ashford Formula was recently applied to 23,000-square-feet of Allstate Insurance Company's new "Eco-Friendly Data Center" in Rochelle, IL. According to the press release, this 65,000-sqaure-foot facility "is targeted to meet LEED Gold certification" and is "one of America's most energy-efficient and environmentally conscious data centers."
Allstate has released a short video highlighting this facility's "green" attributes, including a few great shots of their newly treated Ashford Formula concrete floors (pictures at 00:39 - 0:40 seconds).
Ashford Formula's "green" attributes were no doubt a major factor in its selection for use on this facility. Ashford Formula is water-based, contains no Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and is fume and vapor free. Unlike many other floor coverings which require adhesives, or contain fibers that can harbor ordors and other indoor air contaminants, the Ashford Formula seals and dustproofs exposed concrete floors, eliminating any concern regarding poor indoor air quality. The Ashford Formula is also a one-time, permanent application that lasts the lifetime of the concrete, and is also ideal for preserving and protecting existing concrete floors. Preparing existing floors with Ashford Formula reduces waste, as well as the need for new construction materials (see "LEED Point Contributor: The Ashford Formula").
Curecrete Distribution, Inc. and the Ashford Formula are proud to have contributed to this great, eco-friendly facility. Our appreciation goes out to Bob Donahue, Ashford Formula Technical Field Representative and Artlow Systems who served as the applicator for this project. Great job!
Curecrete Distribution, Inc. will be closed December 24th, 25th & 28th in observance of the Christmas (US) holidays.
