TYGAR Manufacturing, LLC, the leading manufacturer of turnkey decorative curbing equipment for the landscape curbing industry, continues to support the growth and success of the curbing market by offering advanced training courses to curbing contractors. TYGAR's first advanced training session took place on February 18 and was attended by more than 30 existing landscape curbing contractors. Consisting of both TYGAR customers and non-customers, the training focused on the newest trends in curbing, including processes for lining driveways, advanced stamping methods, and using larger commercial molds. Most of the emphasis centered on how contractors can achieve greater success by utilizing their existing equipment and stamps. The course also covered new developments in lighting, walkways, exposed aggregate, and prep recommendations.
Future courses will be held quarterly and will cover various subjects important to landscape curbing contractors, including sales and marketing, estimating, material procurement, other business issues, as well as hands-on curbing processes.
By focusing on the success of decorative curbing contractors with continuing education, TYGAR is once again exemplifying its leadership role in the industry. Plans for future courses will be developed based on the feedback received from contractors, as well as from landscaping and hardscaping trends in the market.
