Virginia Tile, a division of Transom Capital Group-backed Artivo Surfaces, has announced the sale of its woodworking products distribution business to Wilsonart Engineered Surfaces.

This strategic move aligns with Virginia Tile’s commitment to its core flooring and surface solutions business while ensuring continued growth and stability for the woodworking division’s employees and customers under Wilsonart’s leadership.

The acquired operations are headquartered in Kansas City, Kansas, with branches in Tulsa, Oklahoma City, Wichita, and Springfield, Missouri. The acquired locations distribute decorative surfaces, cabinet accessories, and decorative and functional hardware. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

“We created Artivo Surfaces to become the undisputed leader for flooring and surface solutions and this move is part of that strategy,” said Sunil Palakodati, CEO of Artivo Surfaces and Virginia Tile. “Transitioning Virginia Tile’s woodworking division to Wilsonart supports our priorities of focusing on our core flooring and related product business, enhancing customer experience and further strengthening our position in the industry.”

Randy Burton, general manager of Virginia Tile's woodworking products division, will transition to Wilsonart as general manager of its locations, ensuring a seamless experience for employees and customers. 

Virginia Tile remains a division of Transom Capital-backed Artivo Surfaces along with Galleher Duffy, the consolidation of Galleher, Tom Duffy and Trinity Hardwoods announced in January 2025. Artivo Surfaces was formed in October 2024 as a parent company to foster collaboration, improve operational efficiency and expand market reach while preserving the unique identity of each of its brands.
