Ashton had nothing new this year—and actually less in the booth than last year. The company got rid of its pipes. One consequence of that—which I hadn’t really thought about—meant that there weren’t as many retailers rushing to the booth early on Day 1 to select their own designs.
The booth is the same as last year’s booth, which was the debut for the new structure. I think it’s probably the most imposing booth at the trade show, which the PCA may or may not be giving awards for at this point.
