The two-day special session, hosted by NSF Health Sciences, an NSF International company, and the National Environmental Health Association (NEHA), will also address how industries such as health care, water utilities, manufacturing and hospitality, as well as health departments and regulators, can better respond to water-related challenges during a major health crisis.

The event, free and open to the public, will kick off one week ahead of the fully virtual 2021 Kitchen & Bath Industry Show, where Kohler will also exhibit.

Teter succeeds Joel Smith, the director of faucets product engineering at Kohler Co., as president.

More than 1,500 members and employees attended virtually, bringing the grand total of attendees to nearly 2,000 people.

Design & Construction Week was scheduled to take place on Feb. 9-11, 2021, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. The new all-virtual DCW 2021 will still take place the week of Feb. 8 with extended programming.

Educational sessions will offer continuing education units (CEUs).

Due to the current worldwide spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated travel restrictions, Messe Frankfurt has decided, jointly with the conceptual sponsors of ISH, to hold ISH 2021 on an exclusively digital basis.

The show must go on — and it will — thanks to modern technology.  

I’m normally a voracious reader — of anything fiction. Actually, I’m a huge science fiction and fantasy nerd. 

A number of booths will be able to use virtual reality and augmented reality. Attendees will be able to immerse themselves in one of these booths and get a 360-degree panorama.
