Irvine, CA — MAY 15, 2013 — Tropitone Furniture Company, Inc. opened the HD Expo 2013 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV by announcing the introduction of two new metallic powder coat finishes, a new weave for the Evo and Mia groups and four new accessories.
"Tropitone has a reputation of continuously introducing complementary new fabrics, finishes, weaves, accessories and options that develop into significant positive impacts with our customers," said Tom Keddy, Tropitone’s Director of Product Management. "For example, last year we introduced our new Titanium powder coat finish and coordinated fabrics that have already captured a large percentage of our sales. This year we are building on those successes with even more complementary new products than usual."
The two new metallic powder coat finishes, Cobalt and Merlot, are bold, brash and shimmering. Cobalt is a vibrant blue and Merlot is the rich color of its namesake wine. Cobalt and Merlot add a major WOW factor to Tropitone finishes. With the addition of these two colors, Tropitone now offers 20 powder coat finishes.
The new Vineyard triple strand, twisted cord weave is available on the Evo and Mia groups. The serene browns and grays of the weave unite together into a harmonious and soothing fusion of color and texture.
Four new accessories have been specifically designed for hospitality and resorts. The adjustable Chaise Lounge Shade attaches to the headrest of the chaise. This allows individual users to keep the direct sunlight off of their faces as the sun changes position during the day – a popular benefit at the best European resorts. The Drink Service Flag attaches to the headrest of the chaise. This self-actuated guest signal allows properties to better serve their guests and to increase their beach and poolside cash flow. The new Towel & Waste Bin and new Towel Cabinet provide coordinated and attractive beach and poolside organization. These two new accessories are available in all 20 Tropitone powder coat finish colors.
The Tropitone® brand was originally established as a commercial brand in 1954 when car travel was starting to boom in the USA.

Tropitone changed the performance standards for an entire industry by applying the rigorous product and service requirements of the highly-demanding commercial market to the residential market. The Company now has broad and deep portfolios of products specifically designed for each of the commercial and residential market segments, all with the same high performance standards.
