After testing the floor covering’s durability in office areas, administrators decided to install the floor down the school’s lengthy front corridor, in attendance and health offices and through staff lounge and copy areas. That decision hasn’t disappointed them. Principal Kevin McKenna cites maintenance savings, durability and the acoustic benefits the floor delivers—everything nora^® promised them.

Maintenance Foreman Kevin Kiefer agrees. “The nora floor is a real success story. It is doing everything we hoped it would—reducing costs, cutting staff time and creating a better environment with an updated look that doesn’t feel institutional.”
