Armstrong CushionStep: Just What is It? E-mail
There are many adjectives that people think of when they think of hard-surface flooring. Of course it's tough. It is definitely resilient. And it may even be stylish or beautiful. But you very rarely think of comfort when you think of hard surface flooring. It's almost a contradiction in terms.

There are many adjectives that people think of when they think of hard-surface flooring. Of course it's tough. It is definitely resilient. And it may even be stylish or beautiful. But you very rarely think of comfort when you think of hard surface flooring. It's almost a contradiction in terms.

But never to be limited by popular perception, Armstrong International introduces the new vanguard in the search for comfort and reliability: CushionStep. It is not exactly hard surface flooring but a unique combination of several factors that merge the durability of tile flooring and the comfort of a carpet. It's an unbeatable combination.


Actually the term 'CushionStep' refers to several items that were produced by the flooring-ceiling-cabinet manufacturers Armstrong International. They are further subdivided into 3 different categories, namely: stone, impressions and wood. Don't be deceived by names, however. These three are some of the most comfortable floorings you can have.

A typical CushionStep tile is made up of five layers. Each layer is specially designed to achieve a singular purpose, and together these layers work together for that distinctive soft flooring feeling you can only find in an Armstrong CushionStep tile.

Here are all the layers and their specific descriptions and importances:

CushionCore layer: Of the five layers, this is the thickest and the lowest. It makes the tile more durable and more comfortable than others.

Glass fiber web layer: This is the layer that lies on top of the CushionCore layer and provides the tile with stability and unequaled strength.

Printed design layer: This layer is responsible for the overall design of the tile. It lies in the middle of the stack.

Protective wear layer: This is a clear, translucent layer that protects the other layers from scratches.

VisionGuard layer: This is the topmost layer. The job of this layer is to provide additional protection for the rest of the parts.
