[Woodbury, N.Y.] Stanton Carpet Corporation continues to expand its offerings as it pushes full force into the hard surface category. Since the company got its start in 1980, Stanton has transformed from a supplier of soft surface brands to launching its first hard surface line with the Decorative Waterproof Flooring (DWF) collection in January 2020. Last August, it finalized the acquisition of Floors 2000, further expanding its luxury vinyl offerings while adding tile and glass mosaics as well.

What makes this technology innovative is that NaturTrend utilizes nitrogen to provide a consistent sheen across planks from any angle, even after wear and tear.
