By Bill Esler

MISSISSAUGA, Ont. - Wood machinery and technology supplier Taurus Craco is partnering with other top WMS 2017 exhibitors to put out a giant welcome mat for attendees at Canada's largest woodworking show, including breakfast each morning before the show opens. 

Starting at  7:30 a.m. each day - November 2, 3 and 4 - Taurus Craco headquarters and showroom rolls out the hospitality, welcoming woodworkers to a hearty breakfast, and a chance to view new technology over coffee. RSVP at 800-386-5222, or write [email protected]

The event is being held in Brampton, just 15 minutes - 8.7 km - from the International Centre. Taurus Craco is located at 282 Orenda Rd. in Brampton. No advance registration is required for the breakfast. Breakfast is timed to get WMS attendees off to a great start and still make it over to the Internationale Centre before the exhibit floor opens. 

Free Ticket to WMS 2017 Expo Floor

Taurus Craco, exhibiting at Booth #2605, is also offering complimentary registration for individuals using its promo code at online registration: TAURUS17.  

Even before the show opens, Taurus Craco is hosting a WMS Finishing workshop the afternoon of November 1. Wood finishing technology experts will converge at Taurus Craco's equipment showroom to cover surface preparation as well as coating application of new types of super high luster Italian polyester finishes.
 
The program is curated by Jason Chiu, director of the  University of British Columbia's Centre for Advanced Wood Processsing. Presenters will include Chiu, along with Stefano Costa of Costa Sanders; and Stefano Tibe, from Italy's Giardina Finishing. Giardina debuted new polyester finishing equipment in Hannover, Germany, at Ligna 2017 earlier this year, and Taurus Craco has added the Giardina technology to its lineup.
