German Firm To Use Valinge Graphic Technology

Viken, Sweden, Nov. 7, 2011 -- German flooring manufacturer Parador GmbH will use Välinge Innovation's wood powder technology in a new flooring line.

Wood Powder technology consists of a mixture of wood fibers, pigments, biding agents and hard particles that can mimic embossed wood or stone floor designs as well as create custom logos and visuals without the use of traditional laminate floor décor papers.

Tarkett was the first supplier to sign a license to use the technology.
