OCTOBER 2022CONSTRUCTIONBUSINESSREVIEW.COM6Flooring brands are combining time-honored patterns and craft techniques with new technology to offer customers more quality and choice than ever. Flooring technology and materials are being experimented on to give a sustainable and long-term advantage. Designers are also focusing on new floorings like luxury vinyl planks, faux wood, parquet, natural stone wood floors, porcelain, and faux marble.
