Artivo Surfaces Acquires Walker Zanger and Anthology Brands

Artivo Surfaces, parent company of Virginia Tile and Galleher Duffy, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the Walker Zanger and Anthology brands from Mosaic Companies. The transaction, backed by private equity firm Transom Capital, strengthens Artivo's position in the premium surfaces market.
Both acquired brands will maintain their distinct identities as dedicated divisions within Artivo while benefiting from expanded operational capabilities and market reach. Walker Zanger is known for luxury materials and timeless design, while Anthology has built a reputation for trend-forward collections and customer-focused service.
"This acquisition is a transformative step in Artivo's journey to deliver unparalleled design-driven solutions," said Sunil Palakodati, CEO of Artivo Surfaces. "We are honored to welcome the talented teams of Walker Zanger and Anthology into the Artivo family and are committed to building on their legacies of excellence and innovation."
The deal represents the latest expansion for Artivo under Transom's ownership, following the October 2024 combination of Virginia Tile and Galleher under the Artivo banner. The company now operates 64 locations across 18 states, offering comprehensive flooring solutions including ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, hardwood, and luxury vinyl products.
The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including court approval as Mosaic Companies proceeds through Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The transaction does not include the Perpetua Quartz brand or other Mosaic-related assets.
Steve Kim, managing director at Transom, described the acquisition as "a defining moment for Artivo as we continue to strengthen our portfolio and enhance our leadership in the premium surfaces industry."
