FACTORY

Booth #637 Anderson Tuftex An old factory floor embodies a time-worn ethos. Reclaimed from our production of Bernina Hickory and Bernina Maple, Factory is the off-fall creating a new hardwood mixed species design. A full-bodied display of nature’s color and character, Factory offers highly-sought imperfections of wind shake, knots, and burls cultivated over time in the Appalachian wilderness. This style is hand-stained to emphasize each plank’s individual story as if oil spills and hammered nails played a role in the distressed elements in the beauty of the floor. This 3 1/4” wide wood pays homage to an old factory floor in construction and detail.

Something truly special is crafted when harvested wood is elevated to celebrate its most treasured qualities.

DENIM FLOOR SERIES Booth #2209 Arte Mundi / ConCord

Flooring, beyond serving as the most foundational element of any living space, it dictates the overall style and feel of a home. With its innate beauty and sturdiness, natural hardwood floors are arguably the most versatile and effective type of floor covering. Technology and all its advances have vastly improved the manufacturing process so now the look and finish of wood floor can be altered into a flexible array of design styles. Distressed wood flooring is currently trending worldwide and there are countless variations and expressions within this category alone. But our Arte Mundi design team loves a good challenge and strives to keep ahead of the curve. The natural appeal and texture of distressed wood is undeniable, but we’ve decided to take that aged feel just one step further. Seizing inspiration from stone-washed denim fabric, we’ve attempted to capture that worn-in feel and imbue its essence into our wood floor. The result? Our Denim Series. It embodies that natural fade that only comes with time and evokes feelings of comfort and experience. It ™s a different spin to enhance a familiar space that will not only introduce a new look, but also an innovative production technique, one that will broaden the styling effects of hardwood surfaces. The Denim Series, starting off with 5 beautiful colors, is due to be released and will be available for distribution mid-2018.

CERAMIX

Booth #2613 Raskin Gorilla Floors Raskin Industries builds off its 2012 Best of Surfaces Award for Elevations Loose Lay flooring with its latest innovation- Ceramix. Ceramix is composed of ceramic particles and revolutionary built in grout.

The product incorporates its loose lay technology with our proprietary solid Fiberglass sheet making it the first loose lay ceramic tile with grout. It’s the perfect ceramic tile making it easier than ever to install without messy grouts or dusty tile cutters. In addition, you don’t have to be a ceramic tile installer to install Ceramix. Just lock in the perimeter with spray adhesive and loose lay Ceramix. The fiberglass keeps the floor perfectly flat and stable, the weight keeps it down and the locking of the perimeter with r88 spray adhesive keeps the product tight and secure. You can install 1000 square feet in one day. Ceramix will not chip or crack and the built in grout is permanent. Elevations Ceramix also provides a built in sound barrier and will provide much better acoustical benefits and comfort then ceramic tile. Ceramix’s is great for retailers or end users who want the ceramic look with a low cost of installation, fast installation without clean up. Excellent when you need to get a ceramic floor in fast to meet deadlines for commercial and residential applications with an expanded labor pool to utilize due to the ease of installation. Elevations Ceramix is available in tile and popular ceramic plank sizes that include: 7.08” x 47.24”, 12” x 24” and 9.25” x 59.25” sizes and features are G88 Advanced Antibacterial and Anti-Fungal Coating System. With its 4.0mm thickness, 12 mil wear layer and Recycled Content, Elevations Ceramix outperforms beauty and technology. Ceramix LVT is Waterproof, Quiet and Warm Underfoot and is Stain Resistant.
