OurBrands
Leoline® / Flexitec®
Under the brand names Leoline (Europe) and Flexitec (USA), the IVC Group o ers a huge selection of resilient vinyl fl oorcoverings for residential use, including highstreet commercial applications. Ranging from classic elegance to contemporary cool, and standing up to everyday wear and tear along the way, the IVC Group’s home brands provide an all-round
fl ooring solution that strikes the perfect balance between quality, durability, economy and style.
The IVC Group’s products are distributed through retailers and wholesalers, both individual brand and under private labels.
The Leoline catalogue comprises three tiers of quality and performance ‒ smart, solid, and super ‒ delivering the styles and specs to match virtually any room and requirement.
Itec®
The Itec moniker was coined in 2008 and brings together the IVC Group’s collections of contract
floors. The versatile Itec products o er a responsive and assured way of fl ooring that meets the most exacting market demands in terms of build quality, health, safety, and the environment. Itec specialises in commercial, safety and acoustic
flooring, and aims to produce
fi rst-rate vinyl fl oors that are perfectly fi tted to any commercial application or setting in a wide range of decorative designs.
Moduleo®
Moduleo, established in 2011, is the IVC Group’s latest in-house development, combining high-tech innovation and hyper-realistic inspirations that celebrate modular design in a big way.
Moduleo’s luxury vinyl tiles and planks are made in a cutting-edge production facility in Avelgem (Belgium), making them the eco-smart fl ooring choice for anyone looking to transform his or her room from the ground up. Moduleo can be used in light commercial applications, and is also retailed under private label. In the near future, Moduleo will also be produced in the USA.
Balterio®
Balterio, which the IVC Group acquired in 2013, produces laminate fl ooring that enjoys an excellent market reputation. It is wholesaled and retailed either as a premium brand or under private label. The vertically integrated and fully automated production unit in Vielsalm (Belgium) guarantees great but a ordable quality and an excellent customer service. Balterio aspires to remain a green-hearted pioneer and trendsetter in the midto high-end market of laminate fl oors, ready to embrace the future.
