NOFMA graduates three from Master Grader Certification Program
NOFMA: The Wood Flooring Manufacturers Association recently awarded Tom Aiken of Smith Flooring in Mountain View, Mo., and Beverly Phelps and Christy White of Maxwell Harwood in Monticello, Ark., with the title of "Master Grader," the highest honor a flooring grader at a NOFMA-certified flooring mill can accomplish.
The Master Grader designation recognizes supreme knowledge of grade rules and species identification. The three recipients are the first to achieve Master Grader status since the program was implemented earlier this year.
