Under the beautiful skies, typical of Las Vegas, the 2011 World of Concrete Show was well attended and provided a diversity of value to all who attended.   This year’s show brought the talents and interests of over 48,000 registrants from every aspect of trade and professions related to the construction industry.

Trans Western Chemicals was in full attendance to participate with as many of the 1,200 exhibitors, in a half-million square feet of exhibit space, that the 3-day show would allow.

Of special interest in the show was Trans Western Chemicals’ introduction of leading resin and color technology to meet new demands of Low-and-No VOC compliant coatings.  Trans Western Chemicals is an industry leader providing the latest technology to the Construction Polymers and Coatings Industry.

Our line of Special-Effects Pigments, Resins and Color are instrumental in the success of such beautiful floor coatings shown in this artistic demonstration at the World of Concrete Show.

The indoor part of the show was packed throughout the course of the 3-day show.

The outdoor part of the show was expanded this year to allow for more exhibits and demonstrations.

A special treat this year was Western Star's "Serious Truck Challenge" where truckers would demonstrate their maneuvering and control skills.
