Coverings Recap 2025: Tariffs, Interest Rates and M&A

At Coverings 2025 in Orlando, Florida at the end of April, we met with more than 25 tile and slab manufacturers, distributors, fabricators, and installers. Attendance seemed lighter than prior years. One distributor remarked that installer and fabricator attendance seemed lighter, and traffic was, not surprisingly, sparse in areas occupied by Chinese companies. Tariffs and interest rates dominated conversations, but we also had in-depth discussions with business owners contemplating exits and wanting to talk through how best to position their companies.
