Quick-Step Envique Still “Next Generation” of Laminate
Dallas, TX – January 18, 2017 – With a unique combination of true-to-nature looks and innovative technologies, Quick-Step’s Envique laminate collection still offers the “next generation” of laminate flooring that continues to surpass all competitors in both beauty and performance.
What Is Special About Envique?
“In Envique, we have something new, different, and far superior to other laminate on the market today,” said Roger Farabee, senior vice president of laminate & hardwood for Mohawk North American Flooring. “Envique
uses innovative technology to increase the realism of the design and create extremely deep
textured structures — achieving a look unlike other products in laminate flooring. Not only does Envique look like premium hardwood, it feels like premium hardwood.”
“Envique also combines the best of two innovative Quick-Step technologies, HydroSeal and Uniclic, to offer moisture protection for up to 24 hours,” said Farabee. “Envique’s moisture protection guards against typical wet mishaps that happen in a home such as a spilled beverage, water sloshed out of a dog bowl, or wet feet. Envique can even be damp-mopped, unlike typical laminate flooring on the market. Envique laminate is even acceptable for use in bathrooms and kitchens.”
Can Compete With Any Hard Surface Category
“Looks phenomenal, performs extremely well, and sells at an attractive price point,” added Farabee. “Envique offers a great value story that can rival any other hard surface category.”
“Envique is the perfect balance of beauty and performance,” said Farabee. “The entire Envique collection is modern, stunning, and exceptional for the most discerning customer. Envique’s moisture protection for up to 24 hours means that these stunning floors can handle what daily life dishes out regarding typical wet messes. Envique can compete with any floor in the hard surface category, including luxury vinyl flooring and WPC,” concludes Farabee.
Stunning Designs
“Envique offers striking décors, rich in bold and distinctive deep textured finishes, and crafted with the ultimate attention to detail,” said Farabee. “These extraordinary visuals and textures include fire-charred, sandblasted, skip sawn, painted, wood concrete, vintage hardwood, soft-scraped, hand-scraped, and wire-brushed designs on 12mm thick and 7-1/2” wide by 54” extra-long planks, delivering unmatched realism and expansive style.”

Additional Envique Attributes
Envique is one of the most durable laminate floors on the market. These floors are made with cutting-edge technology for increased resistance to wear, burns, staining, fading, and damage from many common household items. Envique’s tough HDF core board and premium underlayments work in conjunction to resist impact from high heels, dropped objects, and impressions from heavy furniture.
Envique designs feature an AC4 wear-layer rating and are backed by a Limited Lifetime Residential Warranty as well as a 5-Year Limited Commercial Warranty. In addition, the top layer of each plank also features ScratchGuard Advanced Finish Protection helping the floor resist micro-scratches that can dull a floor’s surface over time.
Envique also includes a special anti-static surface that repels dust and dirt, making these floors virtually maintenance-free. Envique is a great solution for the high traffic areas in a home.
All Envique high quality products are CARB compliant, FloorScore Certified, NALFA Certified, and contribute to LEED points. These floors can be re-used up to three times and do not require glue during installation, avoiding introduction of volatile organic compounds.
