Woven Flooring Innovator BOLON Introduces Eco-friendly Botanic Collection

Online, April 28, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Bolon® has long been a leader in design, and is now pioneering the entire flooring industry with a green initiative in vinyl. In an effort to meet the market's ever-increasing demand for environmentally sensitive materials and products, Bolon has launched its highly anticipated Botanic Collection, a revolutionary new line of eco-friendly woven floor coverings that features colors and patterns inspired by nature.

"Botanic is our garden, with a natural, colorful product flora to discover and admire," says Marie Eklund, Design and Marketing Manager at Bolon.

The introduction of the Botanic Collection marks the launch of a new material that uses plasticizers based on vegetation substances and includes fewer processed materials. This all-natural bio-based plasticizer is proprietary to Bolon, and is the first vinyl product of its kind. By weight, Bolon Botanic is composed of 23% rapidly renewable content, which contributes to LEED credit MR 6.0.

The new line is part of Bolon's long-term environmental vision, through which the company aims to offer a completely environmentally adapted and climate-neutral product. The company recently announced its Floorscore certification for all its product lines, and continues to work to meet the stringent environmental requirements of the market through its Bolon Green environmental initiative.

Bolon Botanic will be exhibited at HD Expo in Las Vegas May 19-21. Visit Mats Inc. at booth #6249.
