At Fausfloor® , we believe that what we
say is only relevant if it echos what we
do. We say that we believe in sustainability. Therefore, we do what we call
eco acts, or environmental practices.
Our eco acts include but are not limited
to footprint reduction and compliance
to environmental standards.
Laminate flooring is an excellent
choice for the eco-friendly consumer
because of it's inherent green qualities.
Faus Floor laminates are made of easily
renewable species like pines and oaks.
We are able to provide natural, exotic
designs without a negative environmental impact. All our floors are long
lasting and easy to maintain, therefore
they don't require harsh chemicals to
clean them and fewer floors end up
discarded in landfills.
We feel that it is our responsibility to
continuously seek new innovations and
technologies that will enhance and expand our eco actions. We believe that
it is our responsibility to actually do the
right thing, not just say that we do.
At Fausfloor® our goal is to
help the world stay...

Our Cosmopolitan® collection contains an

styles that showcase the most advanced

This collection fulfills high expectations.
Urban chic combined with rich hues and

Highlight
New Product & Technology
Once again, Faus takes the
concept and reproduction of design
and materials one step ahead by
creating a new breakthrough
laminate technology called
“Convex Surface”.
We took our patented Embossed In
Register® technology and expanded
it by introducing a new concept of
surface design. This development is
the most aggressive visualization of
Embossed In Register® ever known,
which is achieved by compressing a
big percentage of the total surface
(at least 90%). In doing this we
have recreated the natural
effect of a wooden surface worn
away by usage and passing of time.
The softer parts of the wood
design have been compressed,
leaving in relief solely the harder
veins of the wood. The harder veins
would naturally have more
resistance to the wearing process
and consequently create a deep
three dimensional design.
LIFETIME WARRANTY
Manufactured in 10mm planks with
thicker coreboard and pre-attached
underlayment to save time and money
during installation
Offers a Limited Lifetime Residential
Warranty that guarantees against staining, fading and wear
Faus’ Convex Surface coupled with
Joint Guard® technology allows us
to create a laminate floor with the
unique appearance and authentic
character of a naturally aged floor.
Can be installed in any climate controlled environment on the first, second
and basement level including kitchens
and bathrooms as well as over radiant
heated floors

TECHNOLOGY GLOSSARY
Faus Precision Surface Technologies
Fausfloor® has pioneered numerous advances in laminate flooring, resulting in the most realistic designs and textures available in the
industry. The chart below describes each technology, as well as our warranties.
The icons below can be found in the tab of each collection stating which technologies can be found in the collection. For technologies corrosponding with each individual product please refer to the Product Specifications on the previous pages.

• Easy to use glueless locking system
• Installation is a snap – literally!
• Built-in edge protection for a more
durable floor
EIR
• Extension of InterPlank DesignTM
• Allows for random wood strip lengths
up to 10 feet
• Incredibly realistic
• MicroGrout LinesTM are discreet grout
lines that perfectly enhance the natural beauty of stone looks.
WP
MDD
• Complex random stone patterns in
laminate for the first time.
• Stone pattern continues uninterrupted across planks - N, S, E and W.
• A fraction of the cost of real stone
without the messy grout.
• Embosses surface texture precisely over
underlying pattern
• Creates an amazingly natural and
authentic look
• Our Wide Plank System is the only one
of its kind, allowing for a variety of wood
strip widths all within a consistent plank
size. This allows for faster and more
stable installation, with fewer joints,
regardless of the width of the wood
strips on each plank.
UC

• Subtle indents between wood strips
• Unparalleled depth and realism
• Doesn’t delaminate laminate surface
like competitors

• Adds depth to surface
LIFETIME WARRANTY
• This warranty applies to our Cosmopolitan™,
Masterpieces® and Really Exotic™
collections.
Attached Comfort Underlayment
Cosmopolitan™, Really Exotic™ and Masterpieces® products all have pre-attached comfort underlayment. This saves time and money
during installation, and makes for a quieter, more comfortable floor.
• Underlayment standard on all collections except
Classic American™ Collection.
• Excellent sound isolation.
• Made from environmentally friendly recycled materials.
• Eliminates time-consuming installation step.
• Pre-attached to save time and money.

Embossed In Register®
Joint Guard®
This technology protects the vulnerable joints between
laminate pieces by utilizing a subtle deboss on the edges of
the planks. This is the only patented edge protection built
into the joints of each plank.
Multi Direction DesignTM
Technologies
Features & Benefits
This amazing technology applies wood and ceramic textures
that match the underlying pattern in the design of the
laminate floor. The envy of our competitor has them trying
to imitate this technology, however, it simply can not be
duplicated. It remains the most precise and realistic texture
technology in the industry.
This is the first complex random stone pattern ever
produced in laminate. Using this technology we are able
to carry the stone pattern continuously and uninterrupted
across all planks (N, S, E and W). This gives the final
installation an appearance of a random stone floor at a
fraction of the cost of real stone and without the messy
grout!

Features & Benefits
Micro Bevel®
Using Embossed-In-Register® technology, this embosses
the lines between the wood strips on the multi-strip planks
including the outer edges of the plank - which no other
laminate manufacturer can do.
LongStrip®
A creative extension of the InterPlank Design®, LongStrip®
is the only technology that creates the appearance of wood
strips with random lengths up to 10 feet! It is done without
changing the plank lengths, dimensions or standard
packaging. The illustration below shows how LongStrip®
works.
The red areas represent a simulated wood strip that runs
uninterrupted over three individual laminate planks, creating
the illusion of a long, continuous strip of wood.

This technology creates the appearance of unbroken wood
strips across seams. In doing this we have prevented unsightly pattern repetition that laminate floors are infamous
for.
This is the ONLY design feature in the industry that allows
for the creation of an uninterrupted wood grain strip across
planks.

Like hardwoods, there are many different types of trim and transition pieces available for laminate floors. Transition strips, end caps, stair nosings, moldings, and baseboard are all available
for most finish applications. Some companies also offer floor registers for heating and air vents.
To add detail, there are “intarsia,” or inlaid, designs available. These pieces have inlaid patterns
that can set off a large field of flooring or be used as a border around the perimeter of the room.
• FIVE SOLUTIONS, ONE EASY SYSTEM®
• One SKU = Five Transitions
• Easy Assembly
• Coordinates with all Fausfloor laminate designs
To simplify the final stages of your installation select the FasTrim® Multi-Transition System. This
system contains transition pieces that can be combined to form t-molding, hard surface reducer,
carpet reducer, end molding, or stair nose. Each transition piece snaps firmly into the included
floor track for a snug, solid fit every time. Trim just doesn’t get any easier than this.

1. T-Moldings
T-Moldings are used in doorways and archways four feet wide (1.22m)
or less and in rooms that are longer/wider than 66 feet (20m) to join
together two different areas of laminate floors with underlayment.
2. & 3. Carpet Reducer /End Molding
Carpet Reducer strips are used as a transition between
laminate floors with underlayment and carpet floors.
The Carpet Reducer strip can be used as End Molding. End Molding strips
are used to finish the floor at door thresholds, sliding glass doors, or other
vertical fixed objects.
4. Hard Surface Reducer
Hard Surface Reducer is used to transition to a lower hard surface, such as
wood or tile. Hard Surface Reducer is used with laminate flooring.
5. Stair Nose Moldings
Stair Nose Moldings are used to finish the edges of stair treads or to finish
any type of step-down application where laminate flooring with underlayment
is installed.
matching moldings
Matching moldings are available for your flooring needs.
Quarter Round
Dimensions 94 1/16 x 3/4 x 3/4
Trim a variety of conditions. Wall
transition is a typical application
for this type of trim. Quarter Round
is a universal solution for making a
rounded corner.
