April 1, 2025

UCX announced that President Paul Castagliuolo will step down effective January 1, 2026, citing personal reasons for his decision. Castagliuolo, who has been with the company for 27 years and served as president since 2016, will continue working with UCX in a part-time advisory capacity throughout 2026.

CEO Ray Mancini will assume the additional role of President on an interim basis following Castagliuolo's departure.

"Paul has been with us for 27 years and has provided transformational leadership to UCX through the tremendous growth we have had," Mancini stated in the announcement. He highlighted Castagliuolo's evolving responsibilities over the years, from CFO to operations leader and ultimately President overseeing the company's day-to-day operations.

Castagliuolo expressed gratitude for his time leading UCX, stating, "It has truly been an honor to be the president of UCX and to work for the Mancini family." He voiced confidence in the company's future, praising the leadership team and the Mancini family's commitment to the flooring industry.

UCX, formed through the merger of three industry leaders in flooring distribution – The Belknap White Group, JJ Haines & Company, and Swiff-Train Company – operates in over 20 states across the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, and Southwest regions. The company provides a comprehensive range of flooring products and services to professionals in the industry.
