The N.T Ruddock Co. has been named the exclusive distributor of SpectraQuartz colored quartz aggregate from Mineral Visions to construction, flooring, and pool markets in Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Western Pennsylvania and Western New York.
"We are excited to add the SpectraQuartz line of colored quartz to our portfolio of specialty products," said Jim Ruddock, president of N.T. Ruddock Co. "Our customers are going to be very interested in how SpectraQuartz can be used to improve the aesthetics and durability of their concrete, epoxy flooring, and pool projects."
SpectraQuartz is manufactured by Mineral Visions using a unique process in which high-purity quartz is coated with colored pigment dispersions specially developed to permanently bind to the quartz surface. The product is extremely resistant to ultraviolet rays and chemicals, retaining its color and hardness after years of exposure to sunlight and flooring chemicals.
The N.T Ruddock Co. is a leading supplier of abrasives, alloys, aggregates and other specialty industrial and construction products and equipment. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, the 60-year-old company has customers throughout the Midwest involved in the fabrication and installation of flooring, countertops, swimming pools and aquariums, among other specialty construction services. Ruddock explained that the company is very selective with the products it distributes, only adding new vendors that meet the highest requirements for quality and service.
