MAPEI Corporation, a global leader in the production of adhesives, sealants, and chemical products for the construction industry, is proud to announce its return as Headline Sponsor of the third annual Flooring Sustainability Summit, taking place July 15–16, 2026, in Washington, D.C. This marks MAPEI’s third consecutive year supporting the event, which brings together industry leaders to advance sustainable practices across the flooring sector.
Co-hosted by the Tile Council of North America (TCNA), National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA), Natural Stone Institute (NSI), and North American Laminate Flooring Association (NALFA), the Flooring Sustainability Summit continues to serve as a key forum for collaboration, education, and innovation across the tile, stone, wood, and laminate industries.
“As we return for our third year as Headline Sponsor, our commitment remains clear — sustainability is not a moment, it’s a mindset,” said Luigi Di Geso, President and CEO of MAPEI North America. “This Summit represents an important opportunity for our industry to align, share knowledge, and accelerate progress toward more responsible construction practices. We are proud to stand alongside our partners in shaping what comes next.”
MAPEI’s participation reflects its global sustainability strategy, built around its “Three Ps:” People, Planet, and Products — an approach that integrates environmental responsibility, social impact, and product innovation across all operations.
“The Summit creates a space where meaningful conversations turn into measurable action,” said Brittany Storm, Sustainability Manager at MAPEI Corporation. “From transparency and lifecycle thinking to reducing environmental impact, collaboration across organizations is essential to driving real, lasting change.”
Logan Reavis, Vice President of Technical Services at MAPEI Corporation, emphasized the importance of technical leadership in sustainability efforts: “Sustainability is connected to performance. By working together to improve collaboration, create practical standards, share expertise, and develop innovative systems, we can help ensure that sustainable solutions also deliver the durability and reliability our industry demands.”
Through its continued headline sponsorship, MAPEI reaffirms its role as a leader in advancing sustainable innovation — supporting an industry-wide commitment to building a more resilient and responsible future.
