Uponor held its Annual Convention last week, and we were happily invited to the festivities. On Friday, Executive Vice President Anders Tollsten told the more than 600 guests at Wynn Las Vegas that while builder optimism is at an all-time low, the company still sees a "huge opportunity" for radiant installers. He pointed to the following markets that still show signs of life - even growth:
  • Green/sustainability
  • Radiant cooling
  • Radiant heating
  • Home automation/control
  • Residential fire sprinklers
  • Water conservation
Tollsten also assured the audience: "Even in this gloomy market, Uponor has a vision and we are investing." The company rolled out several new products this year - from updated ProPanels to Climate Control Multifunction units and more. Tollsten says Uponor wants to equip its customers with the best tools to both "enrich their lives" and take on the new market's promising opportunities.

Watch for Uponor's and other new product offerings to help you find your way through this economic slow-down.
