CREATIVE MANUFACTURING
Every year, Alsapan invests 12 to 15 million euros in its production facilities to consolidate its position as French market leader and to open up new export markets. The machinery in our five production facilities is updated every year to reinforce the excellent reputation of the “Made in France” label.
IDEAL, THE VINYL FLOORING
With the increasing popularity of LVT, Alsapan launched a new line in 2018, which we think will make the company a market leader in the production of this flooring.An ingenious patented system allows the flooring to be assembled along the long and short sides, without inserts, through a post-formed profile. The planks are constructed around an RCB (Rigid Core Board) core, with a thickness of 4 mm, which brings excellent dimensional stability.
• The machine can be used with panels 1m width and up to 1.30/1.50m length
• Investment in 2017: €6 million
• Production capacity: 2.5 million m²/year
WORKTOPS
Our worktops facility uses a direct-lamination process, developed in-house and which is unique in France. Our bespoke worktop calculator came into operation in 2018 and is designed to help retailers offer their customers a comprehensive range of patterns and shapes. Worktops can be made to measure, with complex shapes which can be with a straight or postformed front edge and veneer on the three other edges, in thicknesses from 28 to 38 mm, an infinite number of patterns, as well as exclusive patterns for high-volume customers.
Some 2 million standard worktops leave our Alsace factory each year.
C'STYL, THE MODULAR KITCHEN
With its sleek, contemporary looks, C’STYL meets all consumer needs. Designed to facilitate retailer logistics, this infinitely modular kitchen retails at the same price as a mass-produced one.
ALSACLIP, FOR ASSEMBLING FURNITURE WITH A SINGLE CLICK!
