The technology was originally invented for locking floor panels, but since herringbone flooring patterns have shown to be particularly popular in hardwood floors, Unilin has extended the idea to T&G (tongue and groove) panels, explained business development manager IP for Unilin, Floris Koopmans. Side push technology allows instant installation adjustments. The optimized profile, including the glass fibre reinforced plastic tongue on the short side of the floor panel, results in a strong and robust locking. And sometimes technology extends beyond the locking system itself. 0000027772 00000 n

Answers to All your Wood Flooring related Queries, Flooring Ideas That Will Give Wow Factor to your Home. Such patents protect printing technologies that can produce 3D structures on the surface of panels. hb```b``ac`e` @1681( The 2G and 5G profiles have both been optimized for thin but resilient products. The latest addition to our 5G Fold Down family is 5G Dry it keeps all the amazing features of 5G Fold Down like the fast and easy installation and strong locking provided by a plastic tongue and adds a watertight joint that reduces surface swelling and prevents water penetration, said Kimblad of Vlinges latest tech. It also saves time, which is important regardless of if you install it yourself or have it installed by a professional, said Laetitia Kimblad, director business unit floor locking and head of marketing and business development, Vlinge. This technology is appropriate for all flooring types. Suitable for all panel widths, vertical and horizontal locking. This technology makes it possible to install a herringbone floor with only one type of panel. Childs play! As a result the boards are locked on the long side with a traditional angling method.
