A history of innovation


In its 150 years of doing business, Armstrong has a history of innovation and wise use of resources. Our flooring business began in 1909 by recycling cork waste to make linoleum for homes and commercial buildings. One hundred years later, in 2009, we launched Tierra™, the industry’s most rapidly renewable acoustical ceiling and DC FlexZone™, a new “plug and play” commercial ceiling grid system that distributes low voltage DC power, like solar and wind, to lighting fixtures, sensors, computer and other electrical devices.

We’ve been manufacturing linoleum with 100% natural ingredients for 100 years, but our Linoleum with NATURcote™ is a breakthrough product that offers easier maintenance and even better durability than the original. Our Migrations® BioBased Tile® flooring is a revolutionary new material made from rapidly renewable ingredients.

We have the largest industry portfolio of ceilings and suspension systems with high recycled content; low and no added formaldehyde Forest Stewardship Council-certified WoodWorks ceilings; Ekos® Woodworks™ walls; and the industry’s first closed-loop Ceiling Recycling Program that has diverted more than 40,000 tons of construction waste from landfills.
