Shipping to 47 states while providing Flooring Dealers easy opportunities to increase profits is what we do.  Offering bulk purchasing from pallets to containers is the first methodology.  Most of our product offerings have three to four price levels based on quantity.  A second method we incorporate is offering products on a COD (check on delivery) or prepaid credit card terms.  Eliminating the need for an Accounts Receivable staff allows us to pass further savings on to our dealers.  The industry revealed to us that these methods were not only acceptable but they embraced them.  We are grateful that your support has turned Starline Associates Inc. into the dominant floor underlayment supplier in the U.S.

You Never Truly own a Duravel™ V-Groove laminate floor, you merely take care of it for the next resident.

While topical spills may be the most common problem damaging laminate floors today and are not covered by warranties, Duravel's™ comprehensive testing includes clicking 2 boards together, laying them over a paper towel and adding a tablespoon of water to create a small puddle at the seam.  After 3 hours, the boards are dried and lifted, exposing the paper towel below.  The paper towel is inspected for any signs of moisture.  We then wait 3 -5 days to ensure no swelling has occurred at the seams.  All Duravel™ v-groove floors must pass this test, as well as, receive positive feedback from local installers regarding ease of installation. 

While many companies look to China for the best price, we have found exceptional quality flooring that is manufactured using newer German machinery available for just a small percentage more.  Duravel™ packaging also reflects our concern and attention to detail with the implementation of high end black boxes to let your customers know they didn’t settle.
