Actions always speak louder than words, and that’s why we, at Fausfloor ®, are taking steps to provide products that are environmentally friendlier. We call each of these steps an eco act. On the road to creating a truly sustainable business and product, we measure the impact of our efforts and detail each of these eco acts, so we never lose sight of our goal: a better tomorrow for our employees, customers, and the communities our products make more beautiful.
So, what defines an eco act? Well, simply put, an eco act is anything Fausfloor does to reduce our carbon footprint, meet or exceed environmental compliance standards, or reduce the amount of materials consumed. Additionally, Fausfloor is always researching ways to minimize our output to the waste stream.
Fausfloor laminate flooring is the logical choice for any person concerned about the environmental impact of their décor. Laminate flooring not only uses responsibly harvested, and easily renewed, species of trees, such as pine and oak, but it is also a product that is more durable than most hardwood products. While the look of many exotic species of trees may be readily found in laminate flooring, achieving the same look with a floor made from these rare types of trees may harm fragile environments and require huge amounts of natural resources to harvest and transport.
Fausfloor has many patents and innovations of which it is proud; however, we remain firmly committed to discovering the innovations and technologies to make our products an even better— and greener— choice for the future.
greengreengreenAt Fausfloor, our goal is for our company, our customers,
and our communities to remain...

Faus has once again made a technological breakthrough with a new laminate production technique known as “Convex Surface”
Using Fausfloor patented “Embossed In Register®” technology as a starting point, new products featuring the Convex Surface finish display an even more pronounced form of the Embossed in Register texture. This unique level of detail is achieved by compressing a large portion (greater than 90%) of the total surface area.
The visible contours seen in the Convex Surface products simulate the character found in well-worn natural woods, where areas of the flooring design that would contain softer wood have been compressed. Areas of the design that would contain naturally harder wood are left slightly elevated, just as many years of foot traffic would leave a natural floor.
The Convex Surface, coupled with Joint Guard® technology allows your Fausfloor to exhibit the authentic appearance and unique character found a classic hardwood floor; all without a hardwood floor’s expensive materials, installation, and upkeep.

This amazing technology applies wood and ceramic textures that match the underlying pattern in the design of the laminate floor. The envy of our competitor has them trying to imitate this technology, however, it simply can not be duplicated. It remains the most precise and realistic texture technology in the industry.
This technology protects the vulnerable joints between laminate pieces by utilizing a subtle deboss on the edges of the planks. This is the only patented edge protection built into the joints of each plank.
This is the first complex random stone pattern ever produced in laminate. Using this technology we are able to carry the stone pattern continuously and uninterrupted across all planks (N, S, E and W). This gives the final installation an appearance of a random stone floor at a fraction of the cost of real stone and without the messy grout!

Using Embossed-In-Register® technology, this embosses the lines between the wood strips on the multi-strip planks including the outer edges of the plank - which no other laminate manufacturer can do.
A creative extension of the InterPlank Design®, LongStripis the only technology that creates the appearance of wood strips with random lengths up to 10 feet! It is done without changing the plank lengths, dimensions or standard packaging. The illustration below shows how LongStrip® works.
The red areas represent a simulated wood strip that runs uninterrupted over three individual laminate planks, creating the illusion of a long, continuous strip of wood.
This technology creates the appearance of unbroken wood strips across seams. In doing this we have prevented unsightly pattern repetition that laminate floors are infamous for.
This is the ONLY design feature in the industry that allows for the creation of an uninterrupted wood grain strip across planks.
This barely visible seam is an exmple of the Inter Plank Design®

Like hardwoods, there are many different types of trim and transition pieces available for laminate fl oors. Transition strips, end caps, stair nosings, moldings, and baseboard are all available for most fi nish applications. Some companies also offer fl oor registers for heating and air vents. To add detail, there are “intarsia,” or inlaid, designs available. These pieces have inlaid patterns that can set off a large fi eld of fl ooring or be used as a border around the perimeter of the room.
To simplify the fi nal stages of your installation select the FasTrim® Multi-Transition System. This system contains transition pieces that can be combined to form t-molding, hard surface reducer, carpet reducer, end molding, or stair nose. Each transition piece snaps fi rmly into the included fl oor track for a snug, solid fi t every time. Trim just doesn’t get any easier than this.
Quarter RoundDimensions 94 1/16 x 3/4 x 3/4
Trim a variety of conditions. Wall transition is a typical application for this type of trim. Quarter Round is a universal solution for making a rounded corner.
