LG Hausys Floors has introduced a new luxury vinyl tile collection with realistic visuals and textures that creates an artistic statement for commercial interior spaces. The Artistry Collection, featuring six plank and six tile visuals, is an addition to LG Floors’ PRESTG line of premium SPC flooring products.
Designers and trade professionals can begin exploring design possibilities with the Artistry Collection through two free resources. The Artistry Online Book, a downloadable PDF, provides product details, inspirational images, color palette information and much more. The Artistry Sample Book contains product samples showing Artistry’s mix and match capabilities with wood and metal visuals to create stunning new aesthetics. Both resources are free and can be accessed by visiting LG’s website.
Products within the PRESTG line come with LG Hausys’s technology and design innovations. Its Continuous-Embossed-in-Register (C-EIR) technology reproduces the beauty, texture and look of high-quality woods and stone. PRESTG brings design reproduction, high-resolution printing and the ability to create a pattern size twice that of conventional flooring. PRESTG SPC products are durable, easy to install and 100 percent waterproof. They also contain sound absorption properties and performance properties to prevent scratches and stains.
The Artistry Collection elevates the PRESTG line through a new, proprietary Multi-gloss Embossed-in-Register (M-EIR) technology. An innovation new to resilient flooring, M-EIR utilizes an engraving process that generates varying gloss effects. The result is a reinterpretation of natural wood and stone looks and textures unseen in LVT products today. With gloss effects ranging from matte to high luster, the Artistry Collection enables floors to achieve a truly artistic aesthetic.
The Artistry Collection brings the dynamic Mix and Match design concept to LVT flooring. Various materials, colors, finishes, patterns and textures combine to create completely new expressions that reveal a highly detailed, handcrafted look. Organic wood grain visuals are paired with the look of rustic, manmade metals, uniting wood and metal in a creative and seamless design. With the Artistry Collection, designers can specify a product that easily achieves any vision—from contemporary to industrial to residential—all with an authentic and fresh look.
All products in the collection come with a 20-mil wear layer and are available in either a click or glue-down option. The six plank visuals come in a 9- by 60-inch size. The six tile visuals are available in a 12- by 24-inch size with click option, or a 24- by 24-inch size for the glue-down option.
Both the click and the glue-down option come with LG Hausys’s Transfer Guard technology, which prevents the visual transferring of scrape marks and floor curling that can occur after installation. They also come standard with LG’s Stone Shield high-strength surface coating for exceptional anti-scratch performance.
LG’s 5G Click method ensures PRESTG products can be fitted directly over existing flooring, shortening installation time. It also improves stability and offers significant noise reduction capabilities through a 1.5-millimeter-thick noise reduction foam. Adhering to LG Hausys’s vision for creating human-friendly and eco-conscious living spaces, each product is 100 percent FloorScore and DIBt certified for low VOCs. They are also phthalate and heavy metal free.
The Artistry Collection marks LG Floors’ sixth LVT collection designed for office, health-care, hospitality, education and other commercial environments. LG offers two additional collections in sheet.
