Tom Goodham, Teragren Fine Bamboo Flooring's (Bainbridge Island, Wash.) vice president of manufacturing and operations, will be at the National Wood Flooring Association headquarters June 25 to lead the Bamboo Workshop.

Part of a series of NWFA-hosted inspector workshops that week, the Goodham will teach Bamboo Workshop attendees about the construction of bamboo cores; backing and wear layers; hot pressed versus cold pressed bamboo; dimensional stability and more.

Goodham, a self-admitted "pragmatic environmentalist," ensures that Teragren's manufacturing and domestic operations support and adhere to the company's environmental, social and quality standards. Prior to coming to Teragren in 2003, Goodham owned Claworks and invented the patented cat toy, the QuickDraw McPaw. He was also a project specialist with the Store Development team at Starbucks.

The remaining inspector workshop topics include Inspecting Sand and Finish and Report Writing. See the entire NWFA event calendar here.
