Unilin Launches New Flooring Accessory Technology
Waregem, Belgium, December 2, 2025-Unilin Technologies announces the launch of a manufacturing technology that enables flooring accessories-such as roundnose and square stair covers, transition profiles, and clickable skirtings-to be produced directly from the original flooring panel.
Successfully developed, validated and commercialized by Unilin’s own production sites, this technology guarantees perfect uniformity between the floor and all accompanying accessories, simplifying production while improving installation and visual consistency.
By starting from the original floor plank, the new technology ensures that every accessory shares the exact same design, texture and color as the flooring itself. This results in a flawless, fully coordinated finish and seamless transitions. Installation is easy, with all accessories simply locking into place. The technology offers stair covers in both a modern square-edge and more traditional roundnose, along with clickable moldings, and profiles.
Today’s accessory production typically involves an extensive color matching process when a new flooring design or color is introduced. An approach that is both time-consuming and costly.
With Unilin’s new technology, accessories are made directly from flooring planks, eliminating the need for any color-matching process. This significantly reduces lead times, lowers production complexity, and enables manufacturers to bring complete collections to market faster, all while improving the scratch resistance and overall quality of the accessories. On top of that, the technology offers great advantages in terms of shipping and SKU management since all accessories have the same length as the floors themselves, allowing them to be shipped together on a pallet. The production process is fully compatible with laminate, engineered wood and SPC core materials, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of flooring products.
This technology offers a practical solution to a common industry challenge. By producing accessories directly from the flooring panels, manufacturers avoid design mismatches, streamline production and simplify installation. It allows brands to present collections that are truly uniform, from floor to wall and across every transition.
The new technology will be available for licensing through Unilin Technologies.
