We’re thrilled to introduce our new 8mm Eco-Step variant to our current SpringBond® underlay range to enhance accessibility to our products and meet the needs of industry specification requirements. This product launch follows on from our recent 20% growth in flooring sales and investment in our new Cutler Heights manufacturing plant in Bradford.
The 8mm specification enhances our revolutionary SpringBond® product lineup, gaining traction among national retailers and industry leaders, including a long-standing relationship with training provider FloorSkills and a recent endorsement from Bellway Homes.
Offering superior benefits to end-users, our new Eco-Step sustainable underlay is suitable for a range of applications, particularly new housing developments. It has been developed to be the go-to underlay to meet 8mm industry specifications, meaning that housebuilders now have a sustainable alternative to standard PU foam underlay, which performs better, is 100% chemical free and has no lumps and bumps due to its precision engineered manufacturing process.
Environmental credentials include the product being manufactured using 180 recycled plastic bottles per roll of underlay. Eco-Step also benefits from our innovative ‘twice recycled’ process, which uses waste from the manufacturing process of other SpringBond® products to create the 8mm Eco-Step underlay. On average, 1,000 plastic bottles are saved from landfills in an average-size three-bedroom house when using SpringBond®.
Danny Shortall, our Group Sales Director, comments on the launch of Eco-Step: “We have listened to what the housing market have asked for and we’re proud to have developed a sustainable underlay product that balances comfort, innovative manufacturing, and affordability in response to industry needs. We aim to provide an accessible price point for those looking to avoid using standard PU foam underlay.”
“Our 8mm Eco-Step is the ideal product for those needing to meet industry standards or requiring an entry-level sustainable underlay alternative. On the other hand, our 9mm and 11mm ranges continue to provide enhanced levels of comfort & performance and are the ideal solution for commercial spaces or luxury environments.”
Our team will exhibit our new product at the Harrogate Flooring Show from September 15th to the 17th. Samples of the new 8mm Eco-Step products will be available at stand C9.
