INSTALL and Teknoflor Join Efforts to Ensure High Quality Installation
“A high-quality product is not complete without a high-quality installation, and Teknoflor’s partnership with INSTALL ensures delivery of superior flooring installations,” says John T. McGrath Jr., executive director of INSTALL. “This specification requires that Teknoflor product installation is completed by flooring professionals who have received industry-leading training and have earned the appropriate certifications.”
Exceeding Industry Standards
Teknoflor’s new specification language will take effect [immediately] and reads as follows:
“Installer Qualifications: Company specializing in installation, must have a minimum of four (4) years experience and employs flooring installers who have retained, and currently hold, a Teknoflor, INSTALL, or a comparable certification.”
“Having worked closely with INSTALL for 20 years, I know that INSTALL contractors execute every job correctly, every time,” said Mark Olsen, technical services manager at Teknoflor. “Our luxury PVC-free resilient flooring requires exacting installation, and Teknoflor is ensuring that our high standards are met by choosing to implement INSTALL certification standards into our master specifications.”
