Formica Flooring won anNFTStyling Excellence Award for its Bellezza Botticino Classic Dark laminate flooring. According to Ken Peden, COO of Krotonex/Formica Flooring, the award came shortly after the flooring maker restyled the line for a North American audience.

“It’s a great award for us,” Peden noted. We’ve basically redone the whole line, and to get an award for something we’ve restyled is pretty exciting.”

The brick-like, 25.35” by 12.2” flooring features natural stone designs enhanced with recessed grout lines and a high-gloss finish. “This is a high-gloss product that’s also a tile product, and nobody else has that,” Peden added. “We have an exclusive here and we’re very proud.”–Michael Chmielecki
