  • Meet Kevin Harvick and perhaps have a chance to race in an interactive simulator for a fun, hands-on test of speed and skill
  • See U.S.-made products up close, including rigid core LVT from AHF Products’ recently acquired Cartersville, Georgia plant
  • Learn why performance matters long after installation, whether in a home or on the track

The suite highlights AHF Products’ American‑made residential flooring innovations, including hardwood, sheet vinyl, LVT, and its new U.S.-made HDPC® rigid core flooring produced at the Cartersville, Georgia, facility — a strategic addition that strengthens domestic manufacturing and provides builder partners with enhanced supply stability and faster delivery compared to imported alternatives.

“AHF Products is proud to showcase our American‑made flooring in an engaging setting that resonates with our customers,” said Chris King, Senior Vice President of Sales, AHF Products. “Domestic manufacturing delivers real advantages — from reduced lead times and greater supply reliability to quality control that supports professional installs. Our U.S.-made rigid core from Cartersville offers the durability, performance, and logistical benefits that builders value most, backed by AHF Products’ commitment to craftsmanship and service.”

Bringing rigid core flooring production under AHF Products’ direct control enables faster, more flexible delivery of high-quality, U.S.-made products. Builders benefit from:

  • Product formats including 6 × 24, 12 × 24, 12 × 36, 24 × 48 and others
  • Wear layer options from 6-mil to 40-mil, core thickness variety, and locking system flexibility
  • Multiple backing options, including pad and non-slip vinyl
  • Embossed-in-register and gloss variation technologies
  • Micro-bevel, painted bevel, and square edge profiles
  • Advanced A/B film production, high-speed milling, and packing

Quality Homes are Built on Quality Floors

Across generations, from Baby Boomers to Gen Z, 85% of homeowners know the Armstrong Flooring® brand name and associate it with high quality. Armstrong Flooring rigid core floors can take the heat – or cold. They handle 0oF to 160oF with no crowning, cupping, or delamination. No acclimation is required – they can be installed in new construction without HVAC, on any level—even in direct sunlight. These rigid core floors are equally at home in single and multi-family spaces. The collection includes true-to-life wood and stone designs. Beautiful high-definition visuals combine with embossed-in-register (EIR) texture for floors with high impact as well as performance.

“Builders want assortments that cover hardwood, including unfinished options, and resilient sheet and rigid core to pivot quickly without delaying schedules,” said King. “Strong trusted consumer brands like Bruce® and Armstrong Flooring and our ‘Made in USA’ positioning help assure home buyers and builders, stabilize builder schedules, and create demand.”
