Kruger New ISFA President
Kruger, founder and president of Easton-based Solid Tops LLC, is also is a founder and director of The Artisan Group™ stone-fabricator network, and a member of the Marble Institute of America accreditation advisory council.
“I am very honored to become ISFA president,” says Kruger. “I now have the chance to give back to the industry that has meant so much to me.”
Kruger will focus efforts on the ISFA website , the group’s Countertops and Architectural Surfaces magazine, the International Countertops Expo (ICE) and state/local ISFA chapter meetings.
“ISFA is all about sharing knowledge and ideas amongst our peers,” he said. “Instead of hiding ideas from the competition, we share them to raise the level of competency of all ISFA-member countertop fabricators.”
Kruger began working in traditional wooden boatbuilding and cabinetmaking in 1988, and then into countertops made of laminate and solid-surface materials, quartz, granite, marble and, most recently, NISA Jadestone and concrete. He also is co-founder of Eos Surfaces, a pioneer in 3cm solid-surface slab production.
Solid Tops was the third shop nationwide to achieve MIA accredited status.
