Reynolds’ path in the industry took him from DuraSeal to Galleher to, eventually, starting up the U.S. subsidiary of BonaKemi (now known simply as Bona). Most recently he was a consultant with UFloor from the time of its launch in 2007 until 2013.
Reynolds was on the original NWFA board of directors, from 1986-1990, and was the Membership Committee chairman when the association was just a fledgling group.
“When the first few of us got together, we thought we had to figure out how to have an association so we could better market hardwood ... we thought if we could get everybody together, we could do it. It wasn’t just distributors, it wasn’t just manufacturers, it wasn’t just contractors. To me, of all the decisions ever made, that was the key one,” Reynolds said.
