I4F, a group of companies providing patents and technologies to the flooring industry, announced that Novalam Innovacion SA has signed an i4F drop-lock technologies license agreement for its entry into the global stone polymer core (SPC) flooring market.

As a result, Novalam becomes Spain’s first manufacturer of SPC products, all of which will be enhanced with i4F drop-lock installation technologies. Destined for the global market, SPC production will commence at Novalam’s new, state-of-the-art facility in Nules, Spain, beginning in March 2024 and will be branded Kerlux. 

Novalam serves customers across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, European Union countries as well as the United Kingdom, Norway and Switzerland.

With no inserts required, i4F’s drop-lock flooring installation technologies are up to 30% faster to install than basic angle/angle systems. Used on hundreds of millions of square meters of flooring worldwide, i4F drop-lock technologies enable extremely high locking strength and are suitable for all flooring materials, including SPC, luxury vinyl tiles, expanded polymer core, laminate and wood in all formats.
