ARLINGTON, VA -- Coverings, the largest global tile and stone exposition in North America, has opened the online registration for its 2017 show. Returning to Orlando, FL, from April 4 to 7, Coverings sets the stage for thousands of new tile and stone introductions, conference programs and several show floor features -- all for free. Attendees can register, as well as reserve hotel rooms, through www.coverings.com/register.

The show is estimated to bring together 1,100 exhibitors representing over 40 countries across 400,000 square feet of exhibition space, in addition to a robust program of CEU accredited seminars, demonstrations and networking opportunities.

"There are many benefits to selecting tile for a project because of its outstanding value proposition -- tile adapts to any decor and enhances the aesthetic of a project. It has a low environmental impact, is durable, easy to maintain and does not contain harmful chemicals," said Alena Capra, Coverings' Industry Ambassador. "The place to be to learn all about tile, as well as see the newest market introductions, is Coverings."

Benefits to early registration include advance notice and access to events and conference sessions, contests, promotions and insider opportunities that will quickly meet capacity. Coverings also arranges discounted hotel and travel packages through a variety of hotel partners.
