American Biltrite Announces Exclusive Distribution Agreement with Spartan Surfaces for New Carbon-Neutral ABPURE® Infinity Collection
Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada – American Biltrite is pleased to announce that its new carbon-neutral rubber sheet flooring, ABPURE® Infinity Collection, will be exclusively distributed in the USA by Spartan Surfaces. ABPURE® Infinity offers all the ergonomic properties known to rubber flooring and comes standard in 3mm sheet in 20 tone-on-tone organic colors inspired by nature.
“Spartan Surfaces focuses on driving specifications with the A&D community and has strong relationships with healthcare facilities and specifiers nationwide,” says Scott Brazinsky. “Their commitment to this new rubber sheet flooring collection began on day one, with our marketing team collaborating with their customers to define the visual and colorways.”
“Spartan is thrilled to grow our partnership with American Biltrite by becoming the national supplier for ABPURE® Infinity,” notes Spartan Surfaces VP of Sales Michael Blasek. “This product represents a significant milestone for our brand, offering cutting-edge, sustainable solutions that are hygienic, durable, easy to clean, and carbon neutral. The healthcare and education markets continue to be our focus, and sustainability is front of mind with those users. Maintaining our position as the leader in sustainable flooring solutions is essential; this move underscores our continued dedication to environmental responsibility and excellence."
ABPURE® Infinity is the first cradle-to-gate carbon-neutral rubber sheet flooring, manufactured using renewable natural gas (RNG) derived from organic waste. This energy source is produced locally by collecting organic waste, transporting it to biomethanation farms, and fermenting and purifying it to generate RNG. The RNG is used to manufacture ABPURE®'s cradle-to-gate carbon footprint, as detailed in its Environmental Product Declaration (EPD). Featuring Nfuse® technology, ABPURE® Infinity is an occupancy-ready collection that never needs waxing. It also boasts the best color fastness guarantee in the market, with PURE colors like true whites and blues that will never fade or yellow. Internal laboratory tests show that ABPURE® exhibits the least tarnish after repeated disinfection protocols compared to other rubber floorings.
All South Flooring and Yorkshore will continue to offer all other American Biltrite collections, including Marathon®, ABPURE® Imagine, the popular solid vinyl tile Texas Granite®, and the LVT collections Mirra®, Sonata®, and Sonata® Elements.
