Havwoods International Extends Presence to North America
LONDON—December 8, 2016—Hardwood flooring company Havwoods International has entered into the North American market with the opening of its first distribution center in the United States, the London-based company announced this week.

Founded in Britain more than 40 years ago, Havwoods’ commitment to craft, expertise and service has cemented its reputation as the UK’s foremost wood flooring and wall cladding supplier for the commercial, hospitality, retail and residential markets. Havwoods holds over 200 wood flooring products in stock and showrooms in London, Berlin, Sydney, Rome and Melbourne.

Now establishing a growing presence in the North American market, Havwoods’ distribution center in the state of Maryland is now fully operational and processing orders, with products heading out around the country.

The brand’s European designed and manufactured flooring and wall cladding products set a precedent for superior quality and avant-garde design for interiors around the globe. The Havwoods’ collection of engineered and solid wood products is offered in an extensive range of colors, finishes and plank dimensions, providing customers with a wide selection.

Havwoods’ offerings open up the floor to discussion — the flooring products allow for conversations to be had between those experiencing the floor firsthand. Behind these products that create talking points is an in-house team that heads idea generation and trend forecasting, and works hand in hand with its network of mills, empowering them to push boundaries and create thoughtful, cutting-edge products for clients.

“At Havwoods, we understand our product, and it’s this depth of knowledge for wood that truly sets us apart as a company,” said Allan Singh, General Manager of Havwoods North America. “Bringing our unparalleled expertise to North America is a natural next step for us, and the region's commercial, hospitality, retail and residential markets will benefit from our commitment to clients. From initial design concepts to performance and maintenance, our global team of wood-flooring professionals is always on hand to ensure our flooring is as durable as it is impressive.”

Combining an unrivaled delivery service, stylish designs and an ever-expanding international portfolio of showrooms, Havwoods sets the benchmark for superior quality wood flooring for the commercial, hospitality, retail and residential markets. Further expanding its global reach, Havwoods will be making an announcement in the coming months about its first showroom in North America.
