with

kelly mortensen
technical director, adore floors

Adore® is one of the longest standing
manufacturers of resilient flooring. Since
1979 they have pioneered innovations that
improve the performance, durability, design and
manufacturing of LVT for commercial space
and they are one of the first manufacturers to
introduce Solid Rigid Core the market.

How is Solid Rigid Core different from
LVTs and other rigid products such as
WPC?
The physical properties and construction of
Solid Rigid Core offer a number of beneficial
aspects including true, 100% waterproofing,
extreme dimensional stability in varying
temperatures and, with an attached acoustical
underlayment, sound absorption.

What advantages does Solid Rigid Core
offer for the hospitality community?

The advantages of Solid Rigid Core flooring
to the hospitality industry include true
waterproofing and therefore the ability to
continuously install flooring throughout living
space including bath, living areas and entrance
ways; unprecedented dimensional stability
which enables the flooring to withstand the
extreme temperatures needed for heat cleaning
including eradication treatments; enhanced
density for superior indentation resistance
and, with an acoustic underlayment such as
Regent's® Sovereign's waterproof IXPE pad,
enhanced impact sound reduction.
In addition, Adore® Regent's™ Solid Rigid
Core flooring offers a secure, easy to install,
drop/angle locking system for fast installation,
installation over existing floors and no postinstallation occupancy downtime. Rooms can
be used immediately after installation.

What is the biggest differentiator of
Adore's® Solid Rigid Core Product over
other Rigid Core Flooring?
The core. The formulation of the core is what
determines the dimensional stability and

indentation resistance. Regent™'s Solid Rigid
Core is formulated with a much higher vinyl
content than other products. The vinyl content,
combined with a unique manufacturing process,
enhance all of physical attributes beyond that of
its competitors.

Where do you see the future of this
flooring category going in the HD
industry?

Resilient is the trend in hospitality right now.
From the look of the flooring product to its
hygienic properties, indoor air quality, affordable
cost of ownership and ease of maintenance. In
the resilient category, Solid Rigid Core provides
the best in overall performance. This is the
flooring category to watch.
