Lägler GmbH to Celebrate 60th Anniversary by Giving Back to the Industry
DENVER, Colo. (March 22, 2016) – Eugen Lägler GmbH, founded in 1956, became known across the world for its wood floor sanding technology, such as the HUMMEL®, that revolutionized the industry.
For nearly half that 60 years of history, Lägler has valued its participation in the National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA), founded in 1985, and the two organizations’ mutual growth. Lägler exhibits annually in the tradeshow held during the annual Wood Flooring Expo.
At this year’s Expo, taking place April 27-30 in Charlotte, N.C., Lägler will note its 60th anniversary and long-standing appreciation of the association by raffling off a carbon-fiber TRIO sanding machine to benefit the NWFA Education & Research Foundation (NERF).
Lägler is making a second carbon-fiber TRIO available to the NWFA for display and further fundraising throughout the year at NWFA headquarters in Chesterfield, Mo.
“We greatly appreciate Lägler’s generous contribution of two of these special-edition TRIOs, and the tremendous fundraising opportunity they offer to our organization, and all who benefit from NERF,” said Michael Martin, NWFA President & CEO. “Whoever wins these raffles truly will have an invaluable piece of equipment that will be the envy of their peers.”
“The NWFA and NERF are essential to this industry’s overall education,” said Jeff Fairbanks, President of Palo Duro Hardwoods and its division, Lägler North America. Fairbanks also is the Chairman of the NWFA until his term expires at this year’s Expo. “It’s a clear choice for us to support the training, scholarships and research the association fosters. They are key to the livelihood and continued growth of our industry.”
Typically recognized worldwide by its clear dust-containment cylinder and trademark yellow and green casing, the TRIO produced to mark Lägler’s 60th anniversary will standout for its charcoal gray, textured, metallic carbon-fiber casing. Lägler introduced the TRIO in 1993, but its value to sanding and finishing contractors has become especially recognized since Lägler’s launch of its Premium Sanding Technology (PST®) training in 2009.
The TRIO is an integral component to the PST sanding method, not only for its unique position in the market as a self-contained, nearly dust-free, multi-disc sanding machine, but because its prescribed use reduces time and physical strain required on the jobsite.
Last month, Lägler North America began offering the trademark PST, including instruction on best use of the TRIO, at its Denver location to complement the proven program run at Lägler GmbH headquarters in Germany. To schedule PST tra¬ining for individuals or crews, call 800-848-6635 (800-8-HUMMEL).
