SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mondo, a global leader in the contract, track and field and indoor sport flooring markets, at the Greenbuild 2012 International Conference and Expo this week is displaying its Harmoni rubber flooring (Booth 829S). The conference is Nov. 12 to Nov. 17 at San Francisco's Moscone Center.
Mondo's Harmoni rubber flooring has a number of features and characteristics that make it ideal for a variety of commercial applications, including healthcare facilities, fitness centers, churches, retail environments, schools and light industrial installations. It has received GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certification as well as GREENGUARD Children & Schools Certification, making it safe for the environment and people who use it.
Harmoni rubber flooring is:
- Low maintenance. Requires no permanent waxes, stripping chemicals or harsh cleaners.
- Long lasting. Wear, stain and chemical resistant.
- Safe. Slip and fire resistant; antistatic; no plasticizers, heavy metals, formaldehyde or asbestos; low emission of volatile organic compounds.
- Comfortable. Feels good underfoot without affecting the movement of heavy rolling loads; warmer than ceramic flooring due to better thermal conductivity.
- Quiet. Exceptional acoustic properties effectively reduce the sound of foot traffic for reduced noise pollution.
- High performance. High dimensional stability for withstanding high static and rolling loads, such as carts, tables and chairs; no heat welding required.
- 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.
Harmoni is used throughout Lady Bird Johnson Middle School in Irving, Texas, the largest net-zero educational facility in the United States and a LEED Gold project. A net-zero building produces as much energy as it consumes, so its overall energy consumption over a year is net zero.
