I4F Forms Partnership with Akgün Group-Duratiles

Turnhout, Belgium, April 18, 2024-I4F, a group of companies providing patents and technologies to the flooring industry, has joined forces with the Akgün Group-Duratiles to bring a “clickable” floating floor installation system to the world of ceramics.

The company also announced Akgün as the world’s first licensee of its I4F Ceramic Click technology. I4F’s patented system combines the easy installation of a floating, modular floor with the beauty and durability of ceramic tiles. Akgün is launching its new I4F Ceramic Click-enabled modular floor tile (branded DuraClick), at Coverings 2024, taking place April 22 to 25 in Atlanta, Georgia.

I4F Ceramic Click is a unique combination whereby a ceramic tile is attached to a board featuring an I4F drop-lock system and by which tiles are joined together by super thin grouts (1 mm). I4F’s drop-lock technology enables ceramic tiles to click into place quickly and easily, meaning professionals as well as DIYers can benefit. The system is also ideal for non-residential projects as there is virtually no waiting time.
