Wood Look Laminates
Drive Flooring Further Up the Wall
Armstrong Flooring Introduces Fashion for the Floor and Walls

ring renewed perspective to the ambiance of a room. Adding tile treatment to walls is nothing new. However
today, tile is not the only flooring product that has made its way to the wall. Wood and laminates, and specialty
products like Alterna — are finding opportunity beyond flooring.
And this is not your grandmother’s wood paneling any more. These products are being used as accent walls,
installed horizontally, vertically or on the diagonal. The look is natural, with a beautiful accent of warmth, texture
and color. Wood paneling is back, but in a big, new way.
Right now, wood and wood looks are dominating, with distressed and reclaimed wood looks trending, for
both contemporary and traditional settings. It is those attributes that have made Armstrong’s Coastal Living™,
Architectural Remnants® and Rustics Premium™ collections best-seller’s for floors, and now as wall accents. These
looks are popular in both premium laminate collections, and Alterna™ engineered tile, which also can be used on
the floor and walls (except in showers).
