I wrote about Asylum on Sunday, but as it is housed in the same booth with CLE, I’m going to try to reiterate my thoughts on the booth without completely repeating myself. The booth itself is the same footprint as before—I confirmed that with the company between when I wrote the Asylum post and this one—but it looks so incredibly different than the past few years.
The reps I spoke to from the company had the same feeling about the new layout as I did, enjoying what feels like the extra room by removing the walls. I can also speculate that it is a significant cost saving in drayage fees by not having a large, heavy booth to move onto the trade show floor and then be set up.
The Eiroa PCA Exclusive comes in the same sizes as the Asylum PCA Exclusive, of course with a different blend geared towards the Eiroa brand. This will also be regular production, only exclusive to retailers here at the show, and also giving them the option to reorder throughout the year.
