Anderson Tuftex

Anderson Tuftex creates floors that are designed with intention and crafted with care. We believe shopping for flooring should be as simple and straightforward as you need it to be. The flooring products you choose for your home should be timeless, complementary and curated for your preferences. We take a holistic and consumer-centric approach to marketing and product development. Today’s shopper demands a simplified shopping experience both in-store and online. Anderson Tuftex is listening to the expectations of you as we focus on designing timeless products and providing exceptional service that addresses your needs. Rather than overwhelming you with a sea of options, we're dedicated to crafting flooring that serves as a canvas for your life. Down to the very twist of our fibers and the knots in our wood, we're dedicated to timeless, purposeful design. It’s no accident that Simplicity and Intentional Design are two of the guiding principles of Anderson Tuftex. We aim to simplify all aspects of the floor buying process by crafting intentional products with timeless designs. What’s more, our product developers are designing curated collections of hard and soft surface flooring products that perfectly complement one another, giving your home a fluid sense of style with a floor that reflects your unique personality.
