LX Hausys unveils cutting-edge flooring tech at TISE 2025
Korean building materials company LX Hausys announced on Thursday that it is stepping up its expansion in the North American flooring market by taking part in the region's largest flooring exhibition. In its second consecutive year at The International Surface Event, the company showcased a diverse range of flooring solutions for both residential and commercial spaces from Tuesday to Thursday in Las Vegas, US, alongside over 700 flooring and construction materials companies.
