Brilliant
color with the look of marble. Nine colorways in all. Featuring
flexible, neutral color blends like Brownstone, Castlerock
and Sharin' Stone.
The appearance of tasteful marble chips combined with the
attributes of high-quality, reprocessed EPDM rubber. THAT'S
UltraStone!
Plus, UltraStone is right in line with the new ASTM Sustainability
Assessment (ASTM E2129-01). This new practice celebrates
the green properties and sustainability of UltraStone products,
raw materials and manufacturing processes. Waste not - want
not. This is all about protecting the our natural resources.
Stylish and Environmentally Friendly- Flooring Made from Recycled Tires
Other rubber floors are content to sit it out in the same gyms and weight rooms. But not recycled rubber UltraStone, which goes a lot further.
Using advanced technology,
UltraStone rubber flooring are manufactured from recycled tire
rubber. The "green," environmentally sound process
uses ambient grinding to turn used tires into clean, 100% post-consumer
rubber granules - which are triple distilled to eliminate all
metal, dirt and fibers.
Next, colorful, UV-resistant EPDM flecks, made from 30% post-industrial material are added. Combine both types of granules with a polyurethane, water-based polymer in huge cylinders, and you get "polymerically bound" rubber of a uniform quality and density, neither too soft nor too brittle. Once peeled, it’s ready to roll out. And any scraps go right back into the process - not to a landfill.
But the story isn’t just where UltraStone rubber flooring doesn’t go, it’s where it does - in places where you might not have thought: bank lobbies and boardrooms, laundromats and lunchrooms, malls and museums, even outdoor theme parks.
