Chris Walker, Ring of Honor Recipient
Continued from page 12
Chris Walker is being recognized by both the NTCA (Ring of Honor) and the Tile Contractors Association of America (Carl V. Cesery Award) for his role as a leading tile contractor in the develop- ment of installation standards and meth- ods. Walker is the current chairman of the board of the American National Standards Specifications for Installation (ANSI A108), and a past president of the NTCA and current advisor to its Executive Committee. “Chris has played an integral role in spearheading revisions to the ANSI standards, creating consistency and clarity in important documents that benefits pro- fessionals who are specifying, selling or installing ceramic tile and natural stone”, said NTCA Chairman of the Board Martin Brookes. “His efforts in this area will leave a positive impact on the tile industry for years to come.”
The NTCA Ring of Honor was estab- lished in 2004 and recognizes individu- als for their support of the National Tile Contractors strategic objectives. Total Solutions Plus was held October 2023 at the Hilton Riverfront Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana.
