It takes ingenuity to make a good thing better,
and that’s the case with a new generation of wood flooring from
Armstrong. By infusing liquid acrylic, Armstrong™ Premier Performance™ becomes an innovative, genuine engineered hardwood flooring offering the timeless beauty of real hardwood plus increased resistance to dings and dents compared with traditional wood floors. Because the cell structure of the wood is filled and supported with acrylic, each species of hardwood becomes up to 50 percent more crushproof for increased hardness and durability.

It’s the look of beauty people want together with the peace of mind that comes with a high-performance hardwood flooring fashion. Armstrong’s process maintains this hardwood floor’s brilliance and a consistent “thru-color“ which remains true over time. The finish withstands the most demanding of family lifestyles and can even hide scratches and gouges should they ever occur! Armstrong’s Permion® Wear Layer delivers superior wear-through protection and increases gloss retention compared with traditional hardwood — tough enough to be warranted for both residential and commercial installations.
Premier Performance™ can be glued or floated on any level of the home. Because planks are assembled and glued in a cross-ply construction, the installed floor is a more stable surface, less susceptible to shrinking and expanding with changes in the environment.

Armstrong™ Premier Performance™ comes in a variety of décors, including trend-leading colors like windswept gray and black olive, across six species (maple, hickory, oak, cherry, birch and walnut) in 3-, 4.5- and 5.25-inch plank widths with either square or micro-beveled edges and ends. The product features a 35-year finish, a lifetime structural integrity warranty and a three-year commercial finish warranty.
