First International Distributor Meeting

April 18 – 21, distributors from around the world joined us to engage in educational outreach, hands-on product and equipment demonstrations, and tours of our manufacturing plant and distribution facility in Hickory, North Carolina.

Representatives gained insight on the value of engineering and agronomic considerations to ensure cost-effective erosion control and vegetative establishment practices.

Areas of focus included:
• Hands-on demonstrations of advanced hydraulic matrices, turf reinforcement mats and prescriptive agronomic formulations

• Green Design Engineering™ which provides natural, sustainable solutions for an expanding range of sites, including slopes, channels, shorelines, water management projects, waste containment sites, fine turf areas and environmentally sensitive sites

• A presentation on the importance of soil testing highlighting Profile Soil Solutions Software, PS³, a web-based design and selection tool which helps professionals design and select the right products to address both the physical and chemical properties of soil and other site characteristics

• Soil solutions and vegetative establishment practices for the golf course construction and maintenance markets

• Information about Turface Athletics’ soil conditioner products for sports fields and turf applications

“Bringing the international representatives together allowed them to share best practices and learn about all aspects of Profile’s products, capabilities and agronomic expertise in one sitting. It was a beneficial experience for everyone involved.” said Jeff Langner, brand manager for Profile.
