Calhoun, GA, July 10, 2006--Faus Group, Inc., announced today they have signed an extended agreement with SPI Floors to begin distribution of the Fausfloor laminate flooring program in Ohio beginning July 2006. Faus signed a partnership with Hoboken/SPI Floors and began distributing the Fausfloor program in their southern markets (Georgia, Alabama and Florida) in May 2006. As of January 1st, Hoboken Floors officially merged with SPI Floors, LLC (formerly Superior Products, Inc.). The transition brought together two companies with strong reputations in the marketplace, enabling them to serve customers at an entirely new level. SPI Floors LLC will now be distributing the Fausfloor Masterpieces, Essentials and Classic Americana Collections in their Ohio market. The Masterpieces Collection is a premium laminate flooring line, featuring both wood grain and tile decors that emphasize fashion-forward styles and has all of the “Interactive Innovations” Faus offers. The Essentials Collection is a versatile, durable and affordable flooring option made up of wood grain decors. Classic Americana, Faus’ most recent launch, is the first premium embossed-In-register, four-sided beveled product manufactured out of Faus’ Shanghai manufacturing facility. Hoboken Floors was founded in 1930 and currently has 20 locations from Maine to Texas. SPI Floors LLC was founded in 1950 in the Baltimore, MD area, and is currently a leading distributor in Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia. “SPI/Hoboken supplies a full compliment of floor covering products to customers in this market, and they have an excellent reputation for quality and service,” said Katie McGrady-Allman, national sales director for Fausfloor “Together, we have tremendous potential to bring our retail partners the industry's most innovative trends in styling and design." “Faus products fill a great need in this market for quality laminate with an impressive selection.
