ICPI-NCMA Sees Record-Breaking Attendance and Exhibit Sales at Hardscape North America

More than 3,600 total attendees came together for networking and an opportunity to grow their productivity, profit and market during Hardscape North America (HNA) in Louisville. HNA, produced by ICPI-NCMA, is the most comprehensive trade event for hardscape contractors, dealers, and landscape professionals. 

Even before the show opened, the exhibit floor for HNA was sold out. This year, 186 exhibitors committed to the show floor accounting for 51,200 in net square feet of space.

HNA saw an excellent turnout in our educational workshops and tradeshow exhibitors reported productive visits and steady traffic in the exhibit hall.

An impressive collection of awards was presented to nearly 40 contractors during the annual HNA Awards Ceremony. Meet all our winners, view the winning project images, photos from the awards ceremony and the awards presentation video.

This year’s Installer Championship tested and recognized the skills, dedication, and passion of hardscape contractors from across North America. Teams that competed in the championship had their understanding of industry best practices and guidelines tested in a race against the clock and other top installers in the industry. A total of 12 teams competed and the championship was captured by Shovel & Thumb, sponsored by Belgard, from Ridgefield, Washington.

“The success of HNA is a testament to our industry’s continued growth as well as ICPI-NCMA’s commitment to bringing the industry together to see the latest in tools, equipment, and products,” said Bob Thomas, ICPI-NCMA president and CEO. “No other event this year showcased so many solutions devoted to the hardscape industry.”
