When it comes to problem solving, there is no challenge too great for Robert Ddamulira, vice president of technology at Taylor Adhesives, and his team of product development specialists. Whether in their lab in Dalton, Ga., or visiting flooring manufacturers and installers around the world, the team is tasked to solve flooring’s biggest problems: reducing installation times, blocking moisture, diminishing the need for moisture testing, and controlling sound.
“I work with a great team of chemists, technicians and engineers and what we do is provide solutions for our customers,” Ddamulira said. “Right out of college, my first year as a chemist, I was formulating flooring adhesives. I’ve grown up in the industry.”
