Rick's Journey to Entrepreneurial Triumph
From Fortune 500 to Building a Legacy
Rich's Lifetime of Expertise
A Lifelong Affair with Tile & Stone Tools
Primo Tools: A Masterpiece in Innovation
Elevating the World of Tile & Stone Tools
The next chapter in Baldini and Maggio’s journey was the creation and launch of Primo Tools. Leveraging Rich’s extensive knowledge in manufacturing Tile & Stone installation tools, Rick’s industry contacts and an acute understanding of Contractors’ preferences, Primo’s success was virtually assured. Primo not only introduced high-quality traditional installation tools but also showcased numerous innovative, Contractor-inspired products like the Back Butter Buddy, Bucket Brush, and WringMaster. Their commitment to innovation remains unwavering, with products like the patented Vortex, Lippage Eliminator II, and TrueBlue Grout Floats – designed to meet the ever-evolving demands of the installation marketplace.
OMNI Care & Maintenance: Sealing the Next Step
Quality, Integrity, and Support Redefined
In 2013, BOE expanded its repertoire with the introduction of the OMNI Care & Maintenance brand. Guided by three simple yet potent principles – Quality, Integrity, and Support – OMNI emerged as a “brand-new” Care & Maintenance entity, built on the foundation of more than 35 years of Tile & Stone Industry experience. Armed with intimate knowledge of existing Care & Maintenance products, the OMNI line was crafted to outperform the competition, providing superior technical support at competitive prices. This concise, highly effective brand was cultivated through a network of supplier partnerships, delivering the finest sealers, cleaners, and problem solvers.
A. Bottini Enterprises: A Winning Acquisition
A Synergy of Brilliance
The year 2016 marked a significant milestone with BOE’s acquisition of A. Bottini Enterprises, founded in 1975. Bottini had grown into one of the most esteemed brands of high-quality tile tools. Recognizing its value, the fusion of Primo and Bottini tools was executed with meticulous precision. This union enabled the company to cater to an even broader spectrum of Contractors and Installers.
BOE Select: Curating Excellence
Handpicked Selections for Discerning Tastes
While BOE takes great pride in its proprietary tool designs and manufacturing specifications, it also offers a selection of specialty tools from other manufacturers, known as BOE Select. These products are carefully selected to meet BOE’s rigorous quality and performance standards. And as part of the BOE offering, they provide great purchasing convenience. The combination of Primo/Bottini Tools, OMNI Care & Maintenance, and BOE Select truly embodies the “Best of Everything” in Tile & Stone installation accessories.
