JointGuard incorporates a slight eased-edge on the side and end matches of Faus laminate planks. The Embossed-In-Register process applies the natural texture of ceramic tile directly onto the laminate surface. Both technologies produce a finished laminate flooring product with natural surface texturing, variations in gloss levels, and slightly recessed edges, Faus says. The 11 1/2" x 48" plank system is designed to allow for faster installation.
