Waregem, Belgium—Continuing to grow its partnerships, Unilin Technologies, the IP and technology division of Unilin, announced that Novalis, a manufacturer of high-quality resilient flooring products, will commence production of Unilin’s patented Matte Bevel Technology. The technology provides an efficient solution for achieving a matte finish on a beveled edge.
“One of our key goals is to continuously innovate and deliver exceptional flooring solutions,” said John Wu, CEO of Novalis. “We are excited to introduce this new esthetic solution to our customers.”
In June 2023, Novalis adopted Unilin’s innovative technology. There is a rising demand for matte designs, but no suitable options existed for achieving a matte look on a micro bevel, the company said. Unilin Technologies’ Matte Bevel Technology is said to offer a more realistic and natural looking bevel machined in the wear layer of resilient flooring.
One of the key advantages of the technology is its compatibility with existing milling machines, allowing for efficient production. In contrast to the standard shiny bevels on standard products, Matte Bevel Technology gives floor panels a more high-end look but with reasonable investment costs for manufacturers.
Unilin Technologies remains committed to driving innovation in the flooring industry. By collaborating with Novalis, Unilin aims to remain at the forefront of surface technology solutions. Novalis is renowned for its commitment to excellence, premium quality and continuous innovation. By incorporating Unilin’s bevel technology into its resilient flooring portfolio, Novalis further reinforces its dedication to delivering superior products that meet the evolving needs of its customers.
