Solid Rigid Core

Jaeckle Distributors, a leader in flooring distribution, introduces Trends in Rigid, a new flooring category that raises the standard in beautiful, high performance resilient flooring.

Trends in Rigid is constructed on a single, homogeneous platform that unites impressive visuals with unprecedented strength, dimensional stability, and damage resistance to create an outstanding solution for commercial and residential installations.

Trends in Rigid combines the highest polymer content with today’s most popular visuals. Melded under heat and pressure into solid, near-homogeneous planks, Trends in Rigid has a density much greater than that of traditional composites, resulting in superior indentation resistance, true topical waterproofing, and greater overall dimensional stability.

Trends in Rigid solid rigid core is waterproof, making it perfect for installation in bathrooms, kitchens, foyers, and other areas where topical moisture can present problems.

In the face of normal water-related hazards such as flooding, overflows, and leakage, Trends in Rigid will not swell. Instead, it maintains its original appearance through superior dimensional stability.

Trends in Rigid’s acoustical layer is also waterproof. The high quality, polymer-based, closed cell pad is resistant to water damage, mold, and mildew and outperforms other pad options in its category.

Trends in Rigid offers an outstanding solution for spaces that require additional fortification against the damaging effects of water and moisture, and both Monarch and Sovereign carry a lifetime waterproof warranty.

The density of Trends in Rigid is much greater than that of traditional composite flooring. The result is enhanced dimensional stability, damage resistance, and indentation resistance.

This advanced composition allows for installation over radiant heat and in areas where the floors are exposed to sunlight. Plus, with surfaces fortified by Adore®’s Duramond® technology, Trends in Rigid is pet friendly, stands up to dirt, drops, and spills, and is resistant to the wear and tear of everyday living.

Engineered with over 40 years of manufacturing experience,Trends in Rigid is built to work with your life.

Trends in Rigid offers the fastest, most secure, and easiest click (glueless) installation in its category.

All Trends in Rigid products offer a strong, stable, easy-to-click I4F 3L angle-drop locking system.

Uniform density nearly eliminates telegraphing and allows for installation over existing subfloors such as concrete, hardwood, ceramic, and vinyl. Additionally, the superior dimensional stability significantly improves heat and light resistance and requires no pre-installation acclimation time in moderate temperature zones*.

Rigidity, squareness, and accurate profiling make installation without the use of transitional strips possible in large expanses (up to 4,000 square feet or 63 linear feet). Plus, the very structure of the product facilitates the installation speed and process.

*Moderate Temperatures = 50 - 90º F, 10 - 33º C
