Armstrong Flooring Hosts Middle School Students for Manufacturing Day
Lancaster, Pa. -- A group of local middle school students visited Armstrong Flooring’s headquarters on Manufacturing Day, Oct. 4, to get a firsthand look into the production of resilient flooring. Members of the R&D team demonstrated elements of the manufacturing processes for LVT and VCT. They guided the students through hands-on activities that included selecting pigments to use in their own VCT and creating designs to incorporate into flooring.
“Manufacturing Day gives us a great opportunity to introduce students to our industry and the many employees who play a role in developing products they encounter every day,” said Kayla Lowrie, R&D manager. “We were happy to host the students and give them a chance to learn about how research, creativity and innovation are important aspects of manufacturing careers.”
