Clean and Green
Clean. Manufactured with Nano Silver - extremely small particles
of metallic silver is added to Naturelle giving a durable anti-microbial
action. It would take 500 million Nano Silver particles side by
side to cover the section of a human hair, making the particles
invisible to the human eye. It quietly goes about making homes
and business safer from bacteria such as staph and E.coli, viruses
like rhinovirus and molds.
Green. Naturelle Luxury Vinyl is 67% post consumer recycled
PVC. Vinyl products that previously had to be discarded in a landfill
are now reclaimed in a proprietary process by the factory and
used in the manufacture of Naturelle. No other luxury vinyl tile
manufacturer has made this environmentally sensitive commitment
to the earth's preservation.
100% recyclable - no landfill issue.
LEED points are available for these products in commercial buildings

The natural beauty and durability of genuine Terrazzo floors
at a fraction of the cost. Floorazzo is Terrazzo. The only difference
is it is poured in the factory not on the job site.
Indoor Air Quality/VOC: Floorazzo tile is either 1/8" or
3/16" thick so uses half of the resin that poured in place
3/8" Terrazzo tile uses. The finished tile is totally inert
with no off-gassing.
Floorazzo Tile is long lasting and durable. The standard marble
tile is guaranteed for 20 years, but Floorazzo is extremely durable
and in most cases will last the life of the building. The tiles
are made out of a Polyester Resin, Calcium Carbonate and Marble
Chips. The finished product is 75% stone and 25% resin. The polyester
resin is in the form of a liquid, the calcium carbonate in the
form of chalk powder and the marble chips are the same as used
in the poured in place industry. The raw material is mixed with
a coloring pigment and cast in a 25 by 50 inch mold. After hardening
the individual casting is ground smooth on the top and bottom.
Then it is polished on the top side and cut into two 24"
by 24" tiles.
Eco friendly recycled glass. The GEM line glass product uses
36% recycled glass materials, including post-consumer recycled
glass. 18% is purchased from our supplier as a recycled product.
The other 18% is recycled from our own waste marble chips for
the backfill glass.
Want even greener? They can grind up their own tile to use as
a substitute for the standard Calcium Carbonate resin filler.
Currently, this costs about 50 cents more per foot because of
the additional labor, but the product looks and performs to the
same high standards. This process makes the Standard Marble line
25% recycled material and the Gem line 61% recycled material.
LEED points are available for Floorazzo use in commercial buildings
No harsh chemicals required to clean Floorazzo - water and vinegar
standard cleaning for home applications
Sustainable and green factory.
Local Siler City business and employees. Less embodied energy
getting the product to you!
Less embodied energy in product - marble material used in
tile comes from quarry only 8 miles away.
They recycle thousands of gallons of water every day. Water
for the manufacturing process is collected rain water (permit
issued by EPA) and city water.
Their manufacturing process is not energy intensive using
electricity and natural gas at a cost of less than 6 cents
per square foot of product produced.
All of their scrap is ground up and recycled back into the
product. The materials are totally inert and the ground up
tile can be used again in another application.
100% recyclable. If you ever want to change the color or
you are remodeling, you can send the tile back to the factory
for recycling into new cast tile, thus eliminating the need
for it to go to the landfill.
