Grabo Robust 40-mil: NC State Installation


Why NC State Chose Grabo Robust 40-mil

When a flooring project calls for more than good looks, Grabo Robust 40-mil delivers the performance and durability needed for demanding commercial environments.

From student housing and multi-family properties to medical facilities and office spaces, Robust 40-mil is designed to stand up to everyday wear while maintaining a realistic natural wood-grain appearance and matte finish.

Twice the Thickness. Superior Performance.

At the heart of Robust 40-mil is a 40-mil wear layer—twice the thickness of a standard 20-mil option. This added thickness provides superior performance over time, making it an excellent solution for spaces where flooring is subjected to heavy, ongoing use.

The patented I-Guard top coating adds another layer of protection, providing extra stain and scratch resistance along with UV protection to help prevent long-term color fading.

Protection That Goes Beyond the Surface

Robust 40-mil features anti-microbial protection that is a permanent part of the planks. This technology has been independently tested to reduce and destroy MRSA, C-Diff and Staph.

Additional testing conducted by a Clemson University research scientist shows reduction and elimination of Rhino & Covid virus.

For high-traffic environments such as student housing, these added performance features can make a meaningful difference.

NC State Dorm Renovation: Performance Meets Design

NC State selected Grabo Robust flooring for a dorm renovation because of these exclusive performance features.

The installation features 5-mm planks with a 40-mil wear layer, combining enhanced durability with a realistic natural wood-grain look and matte finish.

The result? Beautiful floors. Added durability.
