Swisstrax Now Offers RIBTRAX Interlocking Floor Tiles for Aircraft Hangars

(PRWEB) July 13, 2007 -- Swisstrax, Inc., a manufacturing and distribution center for the next generation in flooring, is quickly pacing to become the floor of choice with discerning aviators nationwide. The company offers unique customizable flooring options for the aviation enthusiast.
Swisstrax manufactures an interlocking flooring tile that is second to none in durability and ease of care. The Ribtrax product line is a high impact tile design with a compressive strength of up to 5120 psi, a temperature tolerance of up to 248ºF and a roll over tolerance of over 40,000 lbs. This product is completely portable and can be custom designed for everyday use in your hanger, or to travel with owner and aircraft to specialty events and shows. Ribtrax, with fourteen color choices, is the prime choice for hanger flooring, offering a slip-resistant surface while the open profile allows surface dirt, snow, water, and fluids to flow through. Clean up is a breeze. For the airplane buffs that own their aircraft but lease the hangers, you can install the flooring under your aircraft, but take it with you when the lease is up as it is not put down with any adhesives.
Swisstrax Inc. president, Randy Nelson, stands behind his product with a twelve year warranty. Unlike other options such as concrete flooring or epoxy coating, Ribtrax interlocking floor tiles won't chip, crack, stain or peel, and are not affected by hot tires and most chemicals. No floor stripping or unsightly concrete patches and no wasting time while the floor dries or sets up. The tiles are also designed with a conductive material for anti-static properties. Possibilities are endless, design choices are distinctive. Ribtrax interlocking flooring tiles are the obvious choice for the aviator that desires a polished look for the hanger or a custom portable flooring option for showcasing your pride and joy at air shows.
