Keeping the line moving. SelecTech puts automotive division in drive

SelecTech, Inc., a leader in the manufacture of innovative flooring products from recycled materials, recently started an automotive division for automobile manufacturers clients. Based out of the company’s corporate headquarters in Avon, Mass., the new division will feature customer service and marketing representatives specifically dedicated to serving automotive customers.

“In manufacturing, particularly the automotive industry, production is everything. Any down time for floor installation or replacement costs tens of thousands of dollars. Our flooring employs a breakthrough interlocking technology that makes replacement and installation a breeze, with no messy adhesives or disruptive downtime,” said Thomas Ricciardelli, president of SelecTech, Inc. “With our new division, we not only provide a product that virtually eliminates down time but we can coordinate installation schedules to avoid any disruption.”

In addition to ease of installation, SelecTech floor products are made from 70 percent recycled materials and are 100 percent recyclable.

“The automotive industry has gone to great lengths to explore new technologies to lessen its carbon footprint,” said Ricciardelli. “For manufacturers looking for ways to show their commitment to a greener way of doing things, recyclable flooring is certainly a step in the right direction.”

Another benefit to its automotive division includes SelecTech’s anti-static flooring products, specifically its FreeStyle ESD products. This type of flooring is typically used by industries that utilize electronics and sensitive data like electronics manufacturing, communications, aerospace, biotech and healthcare. As manufacturers rely more and more on computer technology, anti-static flooring can provide a safeguard for sensitive data.
