Here's an interesting high-performance luxury vinyl flooring collection to introduce you by Durato with industry-leading resistance to scratches, stains, and dents thanks to a diamond-strengthened protective wear layer. V-EVO Max, V-EVO XL, and now Azul Tortuga and Panzu Flooring are all that and more. Read on to learn more!
Durato International, the manufacturer of V-EVO flooring is a minority and disabled US Veteran owned business, located in Langhorne PA.
Interestingly, Durato began in 2014 as an importer and distributor of flooring to small business owners so they could compete with big box stores. By 2016, their focus shifted to research and development of better flooring options for the flooring industry.
That's when they introduced their first product line, V-EVO.
Since then, growth has been exponential for Durato, with business doubling every year. They have stayed true to the core of what makes them unique and their commitment to innovation continues in 2021 with the exciting launch of two additional product lines V-EVO Max and V-EVO XL, and most recently Azul Tortuga and Panzu Flooring.
