Faus Pioneers EIR

Faus Group, Inc. is the pioneer of Embossed In Register laminate flooring technology in both ceramics and wood grain decors. Embossed In Register technology precisely matches texture with the underlying decorative pattern on each flooring plank, creating a stunning level of realism.

As a company, Faus has always focused efforts on creating innovative products. We believe research and development, as well as technological improvements and investments are the major factors used to determine the future success within the laminate flooring industry.

Most Precise Surface Technology In the Industry

The Faus Embossed In Register® effect is achieved by pressing and embossing in a single step, resulting in products having patterns that offer the true textures of real ceramic and hardwood. The finished product presents a three dimensional appearance with shade and gloss variations.

By combining the Embossed In Register process with Faus' other patented and patent-pending technologies, we have produced a superior product for the marketplace that no other manufacturer can offer. Faus' Interactive Innovations allow all of our technologies to work together in perfect harmony to create the most superior flooring.

Holds the Only U.S. E-I-R and Bevel Patent Portfolio

Faus holds the only patent portfolio on EIR technologies in the United States, meaning that Faus has developed and owns the processes that make laminate flooring look beautiful and realistic.

We have received numerous patents worldwide on Embossed In Register and other innovations including in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Russia, China, India and Australia. Consistent with its goal to innovate and bring new technology to the laminate flooring industry, Faus Group has over 100 patent applications pending throughout the world covering more unique features that will take laminate flooring to the next level.
