METROFLOR LAUNCHES ENGAGE INCEPTION
NORWALK, CT -- Metroflor Corporation has launched a new Solid Polymer Core (SPC) product in its floating floor range: Engage Inception™. By introducing a new SPC product alongside the WPC Engage Genesis collection, a two-pronged “Better/Best” strategy provides a multi-layer flooring solution at different price points for a wide range of applications. The new solid core flooring expands the company’s portfolio of flooring solutions in all categories: in addition to gluedown, a variety of floating platforms such as Grip-Strip (Konecto), Solid Vinyl Clic (Engage), WPC (Engage Genesis) and now, SPC (Engage Inception).
The new Engage Inception line serves as an entry-level Multi-Layer flooring product ideal for MultiFamily, Residential and Commercial environments, depending upon the wear layer chosen. Said Russ Rogg, Metroflor’s president and CEO, “Designed for the builder market, which often specifies based upon construction and price, Engage Inception provides a lower-cost alternative to WPC without sacrificing the inherent performance benefits of such a product like Water Resistance, Scuff Resistance and Dimensional Stability.”
Stiffer and denser than WPC, Engage Inception enables greater resistance to temperature changes and indentations. Beyond improved dent resistance, the premium attached HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) foam underlayment provides sound absorption, reduces transmitted sound and foot fatigue, and helps to conceal minor subfloor imperfections. The DropLock 100 locking system provides fast, easy, glueless drop-and-lock installation and a tight fit. The 100% waterproof floor is suitable for traditionally wet areas such as bathrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens and basements.
Engage Inception is offered in a 4.2mm core, coupled with the 1.0mm HDPE underlayment, with wear layers of 6 mil, 8 mil,12 mil and 20 mil, resulting in a robust 5.0mm overall gauge which is thicker than many SPCs on the market. Consistent with Metroflor’s transparency and sustainability commitment, Declare Labels have been published for the entire Engage Inception line along with Health Product Declarations (HPDs). Engage Inception is the first SPC product in the world for which Declare Labels have been published.
