Floor Tile Producer Swisstrax Expands

Palm Desert, CA, May 3, 2006--Swisstrax Inc., supplier of interlocking floor tiles and garage floor products, has expanded. Continued growth and production needs brought forth the necessity to relocate to an expanded warehouse/corporate office space. Swisstrax Interlocking Floor Tiles are now manufactured in the USA. Swisstrax traces its origins and development back nearly fifteen years to Switzerland. The advanced system was developed by the Swiss and has been sold throughout Europe and Scandinavia for many years, with nearly 22 million square feet of floor tiles currently in use worldwide. Most of the floor tiles sold in the United States are manufactured in Southern California, so while it looks and sounds like an imported product, it’s really made domestically. The manufacturing company, Swisstrax Inc., is headed by Randy Nelson, president. Sharing space in the headquarters building is the Southern California distribution company, Empire Swisstrax, owned by Mike Astle. The two companies have a joint venture project pending--a new showroom and distribution facility set to open in Scottsdale, Arizona. New branches are planned in Las Vegas and Southern California. The Swisstrax Interlocking Flooring System is a perfect way to make any unsightly or damaged floor surface look new again or to simply and quickly make any garage floor, retail showroom, auto dealership, aircraft hanger, or patio look new and beautiful in a few hours. The best part…it’s guaranteed for twelve years! Unlike painted-on epoxy systems which often require days to install and use harsh acids and chemicals to prepare and finish the floor surface, Swisstrax requires no advance preparation. It doesn’t require adhesives of any kind and can be installed in most residential applications in about four or five hours. Randy Nelson, president of Swisstrax, Inc., says “Hardware, software & service. We provide our customers with great products, competitive prices and we deliver to your doorstep. This is the next generation of floor covering. Swisstrax is the ultimate solution for cracked, chipped or stained concrete floors. Creating an attractive and comfortable environment for your garage floors, patios, aircraft hangers, toy barns, museums and workshops or other concrete areas could not be easier. These modular floors are a cost effective alternative to epoxy or other coatings--lasting longer, easy to install, and portable, so they can be taken with you (try that with epoxy coatings!) Swiss designed and engineered, and now manufactured in the USA.”
