Ecological Eucalyptus Flooring Product
Tarkett, a world leader in general and sports flooring solutions, has signed a licence agreement with the Australian company Style, owner of patented technology regarding the use of natural fibers. Under this agreement, Tarkett will produce a new generation of parquet flooring made from eucalyptus wood – the first of its kind on the market. This is a responsible and environmentally friendly product, developed with a view to preserving natural resources and using renewable materials. It is primarily intended for commercial use, and will be available in late 2010.
Using a unique, patented production process, Tarkett will produce an ecological eucalyptus flooring that will be three times harder than its oak equivalent. Eucalyptus Grandis is one of the most common tree species in Asia, Europe and Australia.
