1 FLOORING SOLUTIONS FOR EDUCATION K-12

2 Maximum Flexibility and Value for Education Facilities Every education space needs something a little different from its floors. From classrooms and corridors to faculty lounges and science labs, performance requirements may vary, but the need for lasting value is a constant. And with education spaces at all levels now designed to serve multiple purposes, flooring must demonstrate that same flexibility to prove its value. Whatever the space, flooring is a high impact surface and an investment you trust to maintain its original beauty through years of use and with minimal effort spent on cleaning, maintenance and repair. The Promise Behind the Armstrong Name The fact that education facilities demand so much from floors is why so many professionals choose, specify and trust Armstrong products for schools. Our long history of providing products that do what we say they will do, and standing behind that promise, is the foundation of the Armstrong brand.
