January 14, 2025

AHF Contract's Nod to Nature is a new U.S.-made, with global and domestic content, luxury vinyl tile (LVT) collection inspired by nature. The 2.5 mm Dry Back & 4.5 mm Loose Lay LVT offers wood grains, stone textures and textile-inspired patterns. These floors are ideal for use in healthcare, assisted living, education, corporate, hospitality, retail and institutional interiors.

Nod to Nature USA 2.5mm Dry Back LVT also provides a robust and stable flooring option for commercial spaces. The dryback installation method ensures a secure and long-lasting fit. Importantly, the 2.5mm is fire rated for wall applications, providing an additional design and performance benefit.

The company’s exclusive EverNu finish, applied domestically on both the 2.5mm and 4.5mm products, not only provides resistance to scratches, scuffs, and stains, but makes it extremely easy to clean – very simple maintenance with damp mopping. 

“While other products may suffer damage from heavy weight, with less than two percent residual indent on both the 2.5mm and 4.5mm, these floors offer over 3000 psi static load resistance—incredible, superior resistance,” said Yon Hinkle, vice president, AHF Products.

“These products deliver a performance value proposition and an anti-scratch and anti-stain story," said Hinkle. "Add in ease of cleaning and great designs. With new Nod to Nature USA LVT, designers can choose from a broad selection of styles and colors to bring commercial spaces to life. Each is perfect for any high-traffic area."

Connection with the Environment, Versatile Designs

On-trend designs favoring warmer, lighter, more cheerful colors support the principles of biophilic design. The full collection features 24 SKUs, with 18 woods and six stone/textiles visuals. Every design is unique, specifically made, and designed for AHF Contract.

The wood visuals include four distinct woods: Garden Oak, 9 in. x 48 in., 2.5mm & 4.5mm; California Walnut, 6 in. x 48 in., 2.5mm; Bogart Oak, 6 in. x 48 in,. and 4.5mm Woodland Oak , 9 in. x 48 in., in both 2.5mm & 4.5mm.

Stones and Textiles include Textura, 18 in. x 36 in., 2.5mm; Urban Walk, 18 in. x 18 in., 2.5mm; and Impression, 12 in. x 24 in,. 2.5mm. All the non-wood designs pair beautifully with the wood visuals from the collection. The Linen Whisper and Rainfall Grey designs are simple yet timeless. The Urban Walk stone visuals in white, clay and cloud grey bring an elegant sophistication to any space and come in modular 18x18 sizes. Finally, Impression, the striated abstract visual, adds balance and harmony to the collection.

The collection offers:

  • FloorScore certification, the most recognized indoor air quality (IAQ) certification standard for hard surface flooring materials, adhesives, and underlayments
  • Health Product Declarations (HPD) and third-party certified Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) are available
  • a 20-year commercial limited warranty

Customers can now extend any warranty by using the Strong System Subfloor Preparation Products, a collection of subfloor preparation products suitable for the rigorous demands of commercial installations. Using the Strong System extends the AHF Contract Guaranteed Installation System warranty coverage and length by 10 years.

The Domestic Edge: US LVT Production Offers Unique Benefits

AHF Products has invested more than $40 million in its U.S. plants, including in the Lancaster, Pennsylvania resilient plant. New capabilities as well as additional capacity were added to the facilities to make the products of tomorrow, including the new Nod to Nature USA collection.

AHF Products offers a significant degree of certainty to serving customers with its strong domestic manufacturing capabilities and scale. This includes greater product control, faster lead time, lower transportation costs, predictable prices and a domestically made story.
