More than thirty Russian contractors from Moscow, St. Petersburg and surrounding areas visited the Multiquip team in Carson, California from February 9-11. Their objective was to experience "super flat floors" for the first time with the Whiteman line of finishing products and to acquire different methods that would help them maximize their knowledge and productivity.

     Their agenda included a professional, relaxed classroom setting environment, also known as the University of Multiquip. The UMQ offered them comprehensive training covering all that they would need to know regarding concrete pouring, paving, finishing, F-numbers and concrete-cutting.

     To ensure they obtained the most knowledge possible, they were given the opportunity of hands on training. The Russian contractors experienced first had the entire process from start to finish. A few operated the WRS SuperScreed during the pouring demonstration and many anxiously waited their turn to ride the HHN ride-on-trowels accompanied with the walk-behind trowels.

     Questions were asked and pictures were taken. Overall, they were thrilled with the Whiteman line, the education from the MQ professionals and the opportunity to touch and feel the products. Multiquip had the pleasure to teach and train new techniques the Russian contractors, certain to enrich their knowledge.
