RECOFLOOR LAUNCHES ‘RED LETTER DAYS’ SUMMER PRIZE DRAW
Recofloor has launched its summer promotion, giving flooring contractors who recycle their waste vinyl flooring throughout August the chance to win an ‘unforgettable experience’ with a Red Letter Days Gift Card.
Flexible Reinforcements Ltd has expanded on its 50 years of experience in the distribution of plastics with its new flooring brand and is due to launch Piccolo’s latest ranges, Rococo, Verve and Athena, this summer.
The Piccolo Group, a UK company specialising in luxury vinyl tile (LVT) innovation and technology, is working in partnership with some of the world’s leading flooring manufacturers to develop high-quality products and systems, which are designed to meet the flooring challenges across a range of sectors, including retail, leisure and logistics.
The exciting new range of flooring products includes commercial and domestic dry, back LVT, a new unique click LVT, and an innovative new woven vinyl product.
Rachel Joyce, Head of Sales at FRL Flooring, said: “LVT is the fastest growing sector of the UK flooring market and we believe The Piccolo Group offers ranges that are unique and of a superior quality compared to many existing products. As the sole distributor for the UK, it’s an exciting opportunity for us to expand our reach and experience in the flooring industry.”
FRL Flooring has invested £500,000 in its initial stockholding across all ranges to ensure it can immediately position itself as one of the leading LVT distributors in the UK.

Every flooring company raising a Recofloor collection throughout August will be entered into a draw with a chance to win one of three £100 Red Letter Days Gift Cards. The prizes will be offered to the first three names chosen at random and the draw is open to new and existing Recofloor members who raise a collection during August - (1st–31st).
So whether you fancy the opportunity to try extreme rally driving, a hot air balloon ride or simply indulge in a relaxing meal for two, there’s a Red Letter Days experience covering a wide range of activities and interests to suit everybody.
Since Polyflor and Altro launched Recofloor in 2009, nearly 3,000 tonnes of waste vinyl flooring has been recycled through the scheme; equivalent to one million square metres of flooring and enough to cover 138 football stadiums.
If you’re not a Recofloor member but want to make significant savings on disposal costs and reduce the environmental impact of waste vinyl flooring material, it’s easy to sign up.
Rachel added: “We’re looking forward to launching these innovative products to the industry at a competitive price.”
FRL flooring is also the appointed UK distributor for three other product ranges – MUDA Malaysia (greyboard), IML Italy (metals) and Mapal Plastics (PP).
Stewart Procter, Director at Piccolo, added: “FRL Flooring’s experience in the plastics industry makes the company a great fit for us and so they were a natural choice when we started looking to appoint a UK distributor.
To join the scheme, phone or email Recofloor to register your company. You will be entered into the prize draw every time you raise a collection during August.
For contractors, the minimum collection requirement is two full bulk bags and for distributors, two full blue bins. All collections must be booked in by 5pm on Wednesday 31st August 2016. Collections do not have to be completed in August.
Names will be entered into a draw and three winners will be chosen at random on Thursday 1st September 2016. The winners (one prize per company) will be notified on Friday 2nd September 2016 and details will be provided on the Recofloor website –

“We aim to make recycling post- installation vinyl flooring off-cuts and uplifted vinyl flooring easy with 700- plus Recofloor collectors and more than 60 drop-off sites across the UK and Ireland.”
