CHICAGO, June 11, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mondo, a global leader in the contract, track and field and indoor sport flooring markets, is displaying its contract rubber flooring at NeoCon 2012 this week (Booth 8-3068). Those products include Mondo Idea, Harmoni, Terranova, Natura, Geode and Bollo Extra lines. NeoCon, North America's largest design exposition and conference for commercial interiors, is June 11-13 at The Merchandise Mart.
Many of Mondo's rubber flooring products have received GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certification as well as the prestigious GREENGUARD Children & Schools Certification from the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute, making them ideal for schools, hospitals and other healthcare facilities, offices and a variety of other commercial applications.
"Mondo is committed to producing surfaces that are safe for the environment and the people who use them," said Federico Stroppiana, CEO, Mondo Group.
Mondo's contract rubber flooring is:
- Comfortable. Feels good underfoot without affecting the movement of heavy rolling loads; warmer than ceramic flooring due to better thermal conductivity.
- Ergonomically correct. Anti-fatigue properties minimize fatigue; shock absorption qualities reduce the risk of injuries from falls compared to other surfaces.
- Quiet. Reduces the sound of foot traffic.
- Long lasting. Wear, stain and chemical resistant.
- Low maintenance. No permanent waxes, stripping chemicals or harsh cleaners are required.
- High performance. High dimensional stability for withstanding high static and rolling loads, such as gurneys, imaging equipment, carts, tables and chairs; no heat welding required.
- Safe. Slip and fire resistant; antistatic; no plasticizers, heavy metals, formaldehyde or asbestos; low emission of volatile organic compounds.
- Hygienic. Bacteriostatic throughout, so no synthetic antibacterial components or topical coatings are required; non-porous for elimination of odor and hygiene issues; unlike carpeting, no harboring of dust, bacteria or mold, which minimizes asthmatic and allergic reaction due to poor air quality.
- Environmentally friendly. Easy to recycle and dispose; contributes to builders' LEED initiatives.
