By: via Business Wire

norament® 926 satura Now Available in 22 Updated Colors Across Two Surface Options

Interface, Inc. (NASDAQ: TILE), the global flooring solutions company and leader in sustainability, today announced a full color line refresh of its norament 926 satura rubber flooring collection. This nora by Interface introduction combines an inspiring and versatile color palette with the durability and functionality needed to perform in very high-traffic spaces.

Designers and flooring specifiers can choose from 22 colors ranging from elegant neutrals to vibrant accents. norament 926 satura is offered in the timeless hammered surface or the new subtly structured two-tone design, allowing for rich, saturated interplays of color and texture. Both surfaces are exceptionally durable, maintaining their appearance even under the most demanding conditions in education, public buildings, healthcare, and workplace applications.

“norament 926 satura is one of our best-selling products because of its unique design concept and performance offering,” said Kelly Simcox, Head of Global Design “We crafted this refreshed collection with a focus on design, introducing new colors and versatile options that empower architects and designers to create dynamic spaces tailored to the unique needs of end users. This collection seamlessly combines aesthetic appeal with high performance, innovation, and sustainability, making it ideal for any environment. Interface is continuously striving to develop innovative products that are not only visually stunning but also excel in form and function. Our goal is to meet the evolving demands of interiors.”

norament 926 satura features an updated color palette that blends neutral tones with design-forward accents. It is offered in 22 striking hues with the classic hammerblow surface, six of which are also available in an elegant, subtly structured two-tone surface. Both the colors and surface can be seamlessly combined, allowing for a wide range of design concepts to be brought to life.

The collection’s same-colored granules, perfectly matched to the base color of the flooring, make for a seamless and consistent look across the floorscape, perfect for filling an entire room for maximum impact. Or, with the use of inlays, it can help delineate work areas, define room boundaries, and enhance wayfinding.

Focus on performance and sustainability

Designed for very high-traffic areas, norament 926 satura stands out for its superior performance benefits. The PVC-free floor covering is dimensionally stable, requires no welding, and features exceptional durability due to its dense surface. The collection is ideal for educational institutions, healthcare facilities, industrial spaces, and public buildings and can be paired with Interface’s comprehensive portfolio of carpet tile and LVT, and other nora rubber products.

Additionally, nora rubber floors do not require coating and offer an exceptionally long service life. This durability, combined with the flooring solution’s ease of maintenance, positively impacts life cycle costs and reduces the environmental footprint of the spaces in which it’s installed. Since 2019, Interface has made significant progress in reducing the carbon footprint of nora rubber flooring through manufacturing innovations, raw materials sourcing, and supplier collaboration.
