“Korlok was installed into a few of our test apartments so we could see firsthand how the product performed. We were impressed with the results & Korlok proved to be a success in meeting our requirements. That’s when we decided to swap the original specification of carpet & tile to Korlok for the entire project."  Angus, Development Manager
