“5G is a well-known locking system and our customers are asking for it. Since our aim is to offer products that are attractive to the customers and the market, adding 5G to our portfolio was a natural step for us,” says Mr Field Shaw, General Manager-Vinyl Floor Division, BBL.
Apart from mechanical locking patents, BBL's license agreement with Välinge contains other specific IP rights related to resilient flooring such as the Mannington IP rights which describe a resilient floor with a mechanical locking system.
