What makes a great floor? Stunning good looks? Comfort underfoot? Easy care and cleanliness coupled with eco-friendly benefits? Easy installation? Performance under pressure? Durability, wear and warranties?

Eva-Last, a leading international composite building materials manufacturer, have combined all the characteristics on your ultimate flooring wish-list to produce two new ranges of TIER flooring - TIER Classic and TIER Elements.

Designed to be Fabulous, Functional and Forever, TIER flooring is an SPC (Stone Polymer Composite) flooring that is able to recreate the natural warmth and texture of timber without the environmental impact of deforestation. Put simply, it’s a luxurious, low-maintenance and easy-to-install indoor flooring material with a unique ground mineral polymer CarbideCore that provides enhanced rigidity and stability as well as makes TIER flooring both heat and water-resistant.

“With the introduction of TIER’s two new ranges, we are geared to exceed all expectations and meet the specifications of both commercial or residential environments using the latest advanced material technology,” says Shelley Galliver, Director Marketing & Brand.

Produced in an eco-conscious factory, TIER is manufactured using solar energy, what’s more, no harmful volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) such as glues or adhesives are used during production, keeping the air safe and hygienic. In fact, TIER is accredited by FloorScore for Outstanding Indoor Air Quality. This means we are producing a holistically sustainable product. TIER flooring is also safe to be installed in any environment,  boasting a EuroClass Bfl-s1 fire rating.

The introduction of the two ranges accommodates a variety of flooring requirements. The TIER Classic range is designed for versatility as well as durability and is ideal for residential applications. Featuring a 4.3 mm profile which consists of a 4.0 mm CarbideCore and a 0.3 mm wear layer, TIER Classic provides an AC3 wear rating which is suitable for residential use. With a 25-year warranty, TIER Classic offers a cost-effective, robust flooring that installs efficiently with its 2G click system, enhancing the functionality and style of residential properties around the world.  

The TIER Element range provides a more robust profile, that emulates the beauty of wood with advanced digital print technology and EIR surface embossing. This means real timber scans are printed directly onto the SPC core, and includes a wear coating. The in-line registered embossing ensures the texture perfectly mirrors the grain of the timber. This advanced technology results in a minimal repeat pattern for up to 20m2. TIER Element is a 6.5 mm profile comprised of a 5.35 mm CarbideCore with a 0.15 mm print and wear coating. This is combined with a 1 mm IXPE layer that offers greater sound suppression and a softer feeling underfoot. With an AC4 wear rating, TIER Element is suitable for use in both residential and commercial applications.  Its 2G click system prevents moisture ingress through the joins and is easy to install. The TIER Element range carries a 5-year commercial and 25-year residential warranty.

“We think of TIER as so much more than just flooring, as we want to surpass peoples’ aesthetic expectations and safety needs while also offering ease of installation, and above all, provide a technically sound product that is good for the environment. It gives TIER a lot to live up to, but we are confident it does just that,” concludes Galliver.
