Phasing Out the ATTRA Brand Name

For many years, ConestogaTile has used the ATTRA brand to private-label a variety of products.  Recently, the RICCHETTI brand has been the only product line remaining under this heading.  We have decided to phase oout the ATTRA brand (name only).

You will find in this edition of the TrailBlazer a copy of both ATTRA and RICCHETTI price lists that are identical.  Please keep both price lists for now as we move forward in an attempt to re-label existing products.  All future introductions from RICCHETTI will only be marked under the RICCHETTI brand name.


Tools, Tools, Tools

Check out our new TOOLS price list.  Over the past couple of months we have searched for the best quality tools at great values.  You will see that many of our tools are now being offered at lower prices.  Also, we have made it easy for you to order your tools.  Just make a copy of the price list, fill in the quantities that you need and fax it to us.  Easy!

Barwalt Tools and SuperiorBilt Tools are our primary tool manufacturers.  They are both in the process of producing new brochures; as soon as we get them, we

will send them to you.  In the meantime, you can go to their websites to see their products by entering out website at www.conestogatile.com, clicking on out manufacturer's line (it's in the left side bar) and clicking on the manufacturer's name...or you can contact your salesperson, and they may be able to get you one of the few old brochures that we have.

We have only provided the most popular tools on your price list.  If you see something in their catalog that you need, we can special order it for you.
