June 20, 2005—Wilsonart Commercial Flooring featured tiles during NeoCon at The Merchandise Mart in Chicago, with stones from its premium commercial flooring line, Contact with Tap-N-Lock, and new, cutting-edge designs.
The company’s Tap-N-Lock system allows for a faster and less expensive installation compared to wood or conventional laminate flooring. The new value-priced line is designed specifically to fit the needs of smaller, more mainline commercial installations on a fixed technical improvement budget, according to the company.
The Contact line features 26 patterns, consisting of 19 planks and 7 tiles. Wilsonart’s Tap-N-Lock technology installation uses two tongue-and-groove joints for extra strength. The double tongue-and-groove edges are treated with a hot wax-oil emulsion. The oil acts as a carrier helping the wax emulsion penetrate deeply into the high-density fiberboard core, which eliminates moisture intrusion into the floor. It offers a faster, non-angled installation system, which makes it easier to install around doors and tight corners, and it also eliminates peaking for a smooth, even-level finish.
