ForesFloor Shows Off New Trade Continuously working to develop new trends, ForesFloor will be showing off a variety of innovative products and new ideas at upcoming tradeshows. Always on board with elegance, ForesFloor will present its new Exotic Collection that not only represents style, but lifelong durability. To meet customer demands for an old-fashioned look, ForesFloor will showcase its unique Antique Grade. Giving the impression of yesteryear with the durability that will last beyond tomorrow, the new Antique Grade offers optimal product lengths and is available in standard widths and new 5” and 6” widths. And there’s more: ForesFloor demonstrates how it continues to distinguish itself from the competition with its new Pre-oiled Collection, a sheen that is reminiscent of older wooden floors. As well as providing an opportunity to explore new offerings in the ForesFloor product line, tradeshows offer distributors and retailers the opportunity to learn more about ForesFloor’s distinguishing features, such as MoistureGuard, an exclusive undercoating to prevent strip expansion caused by relative humidity, and DuraStar, an exclusive 10-coat process with aluminium oxide to aid protection.

Moisture Guard Reinvents Wood Think “wood is wood?” While many distributors and retailers may have a hard time convincing customers to buy their products even at reduced priced, sellers of ForesFloor continue to enjoy the benefits of the products’ distinguishing features. For instance, take ForesFloor’s exclusive Moisture Guard protection, a sealer-coating applied to the bottom strips. Moisture Guard helps to prevent dilation and expansion of planks due to seasonal changes in relative humidity. Does MoistureGuard really make a difference? Absolutely. The bottom strip application improves the floor’s performance, and serves as a tremendous advantage in improving the bottom line for distributors and retailers. While wood may always be wood, ForesFloor’s Moisture Guard reinvents the wood floor, enhancing its look year-round - and closing sales daily.
