Monte started his first business at age 13 and has never looked back! "Around 5 years ago I was looking for a new business when I came across something very interesting. "I had a friend who owned several very successful Ace Hardware stores in South Florida, and one of the greatest needs of customers was anti-slip products. He was selling truck loads of a coating for ramps and sidewalks, but he had no answer for those who had slippery surfaces that a coating was inappropriate for". Hearing about an anti-slip product for tile, he attended a meeting to see the product and was impressed, "They needed someone to kick things off here in the US so they gave me a few gallons and off I went to Jacksonville, Florida". After some initial success he was asked to train other dealers, “I thought it would be a good idea to meet fellow distributors, but as I traveled North America I realized just as I had seen back home, that one product would not solve even a small percentage of the floor safety issues out there. All the dealers also had great concerns about using Hydrofluoric Acid, really one of the most dangerous acids in the world".
It became clear that much more was needed to help solve the deadly scourge of slip, trip and falls, he looked for the products that not only were the most effective, affordable, easy to use, but also enviromentaly friendly. "I am proud to say that our Grease Release, Grout Blaster, Traction, Floor Safety Clean, really our entire line, is we believe the best in the world, and they do it with out harsh corrosive chemicals".
