Metroflor officially launched its new global LVT brand, Aspecta at NeoCon to rave reviews, as the more than 100 SKU product introduction received a number of accolades, including NSF 332 Platinum level certification for sustainability.
American Biltrite’s newest collection, Sonata, offers LVT in a classic and contemporary line of colors and patterns, incorporating everything from Rustic Slate and Timeless Travertine to Urban Stone and Metallic Brushstrokes, and textures from smooth to striated.
When it comes to the resilient flooring, be it linoleum, vinyl, rubber, etc., the category is one of the few industries that can proudly say it has a long and rich American heritage. In fact, when you look at the major producers of resilient, many companies can trace their roots back to the 1800s.
If there was any doubt as to whether the industry is starting to bounce back from the deep pit it fell in due to the Great Recession, one only needed to attend this year’s Surfaces, as both exhibitor and attendees expressed the kind of optimism and hope that had been absent for the last six-plus years.
