“Laticrete is fortunate to be able to utilize John’s vast range of experiences in the ceramic tile industry,” said Ed Metcalf, Laticrete president, North America. “He’s an extremely knowledgeable resource for our people to work with as they continue to develop world class products for end users and well-integrated marketing programs for our distributor, design professional, and construction industry partners.”
