Bjelin Hardened Wood wins Best Overall Product Award at TISE 2023

Bjelin Hardened Wood won an Award for the Commercial range 33 at The International Surface Event (TISE) 2023. Featuring the innovative technologies 5G® Dry™ and Woodura® from Välinge Innovation, the sustainable Hardened Wood Commercial series was awarded Best Overall Product.

“Quality is key for Bjelin Hardened Wood, using a high standard of wooden floor products combined with advanced technologies,” said Zach Adams, General Manager of Välinge North America. “It is therefore an honour that we have been recognised with this prestigious award.”

The ‘Best of Awards’ is held annually at the well-known and widely recognised TISE in Las Vegas, with the industry and attendees voting on the best products.

Commercial areas demand unique requirements and traditionally it’s been a question of form rather than function — but not anymore. The Hardened Wood Class 33 range from Bjelin is proof that a beautiful real wood floor can be perfectly suitable even for a heavily trafficked area. With the advanced technology from Välinge Innovation, it’s now possible to achieve the perfect foundation for your business, whether it’s a hotel, restaurant, café or boutique, without having to make any compromises.

“Our patented technologies bring major advantages to any floor. You are now able to get a wooden product with a significantly higher level of waterproofness. 5G Dry is a completely leak-proof floor locking system and the Woodura technology creates a more water-resistant surface. This method also makes the wood panels several times stronger, more scratch- and impact resistant and more durable than any traditional option. This means you’ll get a premium quality floor that even when placed in a commercial area will be low-maintenance and worry-free,” said Per Nygren, Executive Vice President, Välinge Innovation.

Technologies from Välinge Innovation
Välinge Innovation are among the top industry-leaders in the world, well-known for developing groundbreaking technologies and challenging traditional ways of thinking.

The leak-proof 5G® Dry™ floor locking system has the same fast, easy, and durable installation as the popular 5G® Fold Down – but with a watertight joint. This means zero risk for leakage through the floor panels without needing extra coating or chemicals. With a watertight installation system there are no longer any needs to worry – you get a long-lasting floor that perfectly fits a modern lifestyle.

Woodura® is a high-quality way to produce a more sustainable real wood floor. With this technology you get more product out of less raw material and the unique surface solution makes the floor up to three times stronger than traditional wood floors, making this a beautiful and long-lasting choice capable to handle most aspects of daily life.
