Nora Flooring Featured in Olympic 'Water Cube'

Lawrence, MA, Aug. 08, 2008--The National Aquatics Center or "Water Cube," a landmark of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, features floor coverings from Nora systems, Inc.

More than 107,000 square feet of Noraplan(R) mega covers corridors and high traffic areas throughout the center for its safety, maintenance and wear-resistance.

Located inside the Beijing Olympic Green, the Water Cube is part of the National Stadium complex and serves as the venue for swimming, diving, synchronized swimming and water polo competition.

Noraplan mega's three-dimensional pattern provides wear and slip resistance -- extremely important for a venue expecting 17,000+ visitors during the 2008 Olympic Games alone.
