Hardwood that’s as tough as you are – inside and out
2 | Armstrong® Performance Plus™
Outer beauty. Inner strength. Plenty of hardwood floors claim to be tougher than anything you
can throw at them. But most are only protected on the surface.
Underneath they are just like any other hardwood floor.
Armstrong® Performance Plus™ floors are different. Performance
Plus hardwood is tough inside and out. It starts with top quality
hardwood, which gets infused with liquid acrylic to make the
wood itself more than twice as hard. Then, it’s further protected
with the Armstrong™ Lifetime Finish, our toughest finish.
Twice the protection, for resistance to dents and gouges as well
as scratches and scuffs.

Instead of being limited to species typically considered
appropriate for active homes and high-traffic rooms, you
can choose from six species based entirely on your style
preferences. From the subtle elegance of cherry to the bold
variation of walnut, simply choose the look you love.
Color is purely a matter of personal preference, too. Light
and natural, warm and red or rich and dark – there is no
wrong answer. The Performance Plus™ collection even has
white-washed looks and shades of gray that are lighting up
the home fashion world. And who says you have to choose
just one? Stripes, borders and accent colors make a one-
of-a-kind statement.
Gloss level is also a key style choice. High gloss is
considered a more formal and traditional hardwood look,
while low gloss is more casual and contemporary.

of fashion and sophistication to any room. All you have to do is choose.

Ultimate scratch resistance is provided by the
Armstrong™ Lifetime Finish. Nano particles in the
finish create a powerful layer of scratch protection
without clouding the beauty of the hardwood
beneath. It’s our toughest finish and the ultimate
protection against scratches, wear and stains.
Durable dent resistance is ensured by the
patented acrylic infusion process, which literally
fills in the gaps in the wood cells with acrylic,
making even soft species like cherry, birch and
walnut harder than oak. That means less lasting
evidence of everyday life on your floor.

ORDINARY HARDWOOD
PERFORMANCE PLUS HARDWOOD
Ordinary hardwood has open cells. Acrylic infusion fills open cells and strengthens the wood.
Hardwood style for any lifestyleFrom dachshunds to Dobermans, toddlers to teens, Performance Plus™ flooring
has the strength inside and out to stand up to everyday life in even the busiest home.
In fact, it’s so tough, it is even a great choice for small business spaces.
This chart compares the hardness of
ordinary wood and Performance Plus
hardwood of the same species as
measured by the Janka test. The industry
standard test measures the force required
to leave an indentation in the wood. The
higher the number, the harder the wood.
