The past year has been an exciting year of positive change and growth for Crossville Studios™! We launched many fabulous new products and have enjoyed the year of getting to know and collaborating with our new AHF family of flooring products. 

In the design world, holistic well-being, sustainability, biophilia, and personalization have been the top priorities. The line between residential and commercial design remains blurred, with “resimercial” design principles effectively merging the comforts of home with professional and hospitality environments, creating inviting settings that boost both productivity and satisfaction. Across the industry, there is a strong sense of optimism and a commitment to reinvention, driving designers and businesses to embrace bold, transformative solutions that meet the demands of modern society.

In celebration of a fantastic year for our industry, we'd like to share a year-end recap highlighting new products, the most popular blogs, and top projects.

New Product Categories in 2024

We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention the exciting addition of non-ceramic flooring categories. In 2024, we introduced hardwood flooring (solid hardwood and engineered hardwood), luxury vinyl tile (LVT), and high-density polymer core (HDCP®).

Hardwood Flooring

Solid Hardwood

There’s nothing quite like the luxurious appeal and warmth of solid hardwood flooring. Crossville Studios now offers three high-end solid hardwood collections in various sizes and colors. All lines feature tongue-and-groove installation to ensure a long-lasting floor that you’ll love for a lifetime. Explore our solid hardwood collections here.

Engineered Hardwood 

Engineered hardwood flooring combines the timeless beauty of natural wood with advanced durability and stability. Ideal for any home, this versatile flooring option offers the warmth and elegance of hardwood with added resilience. 

Luxury Vinyl Tile

Offering a variety of designs inspired by the natural beauty of wood, the texture of stone, and even unique textile visuals, our Access Point™ LVT collection is a beautiful, versatile, and cost-effective option for flooring.

HIgh-Density Polymer Core

High-density polymer core, or HDPC®, is the latest innovation in rigid core flooring. Our ultra-dense polymer core makes these luxury vinyl planks incredibly dent—and moisture-resistant and able to handle extreme temperatures, making them a superior choice for any room in your home, even three-season rooms.
