The Barrington laminate collection by Mohawk provides the look of vintage craftsmanship and time-worn appeal. These designs feature vivid grain patterns and natural markings to create a stunning visual. The 5" wide planks are the perfect width for these species, not too narrow and not too wide. The micro-beveled edges deliver a sleek look while clearly delineating each plank. The best parts are the in-register embossing and the GenuEdge technology. Armstrong defines in-register embossing:
A manufacturing process that intensifies the depth, texture and realistic look of the floor by aligning the embossing with the printed design.
Embossing in-register is a powerful method to highlight the grain and texture that you see in real hardwood floors. The highlighting is is perfectly suited for Oak, Hickory and Chestnut and the Barrington Collection features ten amazing colors in these species.
Next, Mohawk's new GenuEdge features the most realistic hardwood looks in laminate flooring. The remarkable visual effect is achieved through an innovative process that allows the paper to roll over the edges of the laminate plank, for a three dimensional effect on the edges.
This is another example of Made in USA technologies setting our domestic laminate floors apart from the cheap imports in terms of aesthetics, styling and design. So not only do you get a better looking floor, you help strengthen American workers, American companies and the American economy
