March 6, 2006—Armstrong has revitalized four of its top-selling and durable homogeneous and inlaid sheet vinyl lines and introduces an entirely new visual, Royal. Further, says the company, it is including a revolutionary new seaming system to the category.
The four revitalized inlaid sheet vinyl lines are Medintech, Medintech Tandem, Possibilities Petit Point, and Connection Corolon.
The most significant innovation is the conversion from felt-back to fiberglass backing on Armstrong’s two most popular inlaid sheet products, Connection Corolon and Possibilities Petit Point to enhance their flexibility for easier handling, simpler installation, and greater dimensional stability.
Armstrong has ensured that these new products, as well as all its existing resilient products, are recognized for contributing to indoor air quality through FloorScore, a new voluntary certification program administered by the Resilient Floor Covering Institute (RFCI) that identifies flooring products that meet stringent air quality requirements for low-emitting building materials.
Armstrong now offers the S-761 seam adhesive, a new patent-pending seeming system for commercial sheet vinyl that provides simple, faster, and less expensive seaming options.
Among other benefits: heat welding can cost $3 to $5 per lineal foot while S-761 Seam Adhesive costs pennies per seam and no extra equipment is needed, whereas heat weld tools can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $2,000.
