Bjelin, a leading producer of advanced wood flooring solutions, has formed a strategic partnership with Urban Surfaces, a prominent flooring company based in California. This collaboration marks a significant step toward expanding Bjelin’s presence in both the residential and commercial markets across the United States.

Urban Surfaces has built a strong reputation in the builder and multifamily segments, making them the ideal partner for Bjelin as they look to further penetrate the US market. As part of this partnership, Urban Surfaces will distribute a carefully curated selection of Bjelin’s high-performance products, including Woodura Planks with a brushed surface in sizes L, XL, and XXL, Woodura Herringbone, and Nadura Tiles. These products are known for their durability and design-forward aesthetic, catering to both residential and commercial customers.

A Strategic Partnership to Enhance Product Distribution

The collaboration between Bjelin and Urban Surfaces allows both companies to introduce high-quality flooring solutions to a broader audience. With Urban Surfaces’ national reach, Bjelin’s products will now be available through builder channels, expanding access to both commercial and residential clients across the country. The partnership will initially focus on ten key states along the West Coast, where Urban Surfaces has an established network and market expertise.

“We’re particularly enthusiastic about the durability of Bjelin’s hardened wood products, which are well-suited for high-traffic commercial environments,” says Jacob Olsson, VP of Product at Urban Surfaces. “Our team is eager to introduce these sustainable, design-forward solutions to customers.”

Bjelin’s high-performance Woodura and Nadura products are designed to withstand the demands of both residential and commercial applications. This makes them an ideal choice for high-traffic areas, including commercial spaces and multi-family housing units.

A Commitment to Innovation and Quality

Bob Naida, Bjelin’s Residential and Commercial National Sales Manager in the US, expressed excitement about the new partnership: “We’re excited to work with a partner that shares our commitment to innovation and quality. Urban Surfaces’ strength in the builder and multifamily segment makes them an ideal collaborator as we expand our flooring presence in the US.”

The partnership’s focus on key markets in the United States, especially along the West Coast, allows Bjelin to leverage Urban Surfaces’ well-established position in the builder sector. Urban Surfaces has a solid reputation for providing high-quality products to both commercial and residential clients, aligning perfectly with Bjelin’s brand values.

Bjelin’s Flooring Technology and Commitment to Sustainability

Bjelin, part of the Pervanovo Invest AB group, is known for its innovative approach to wood flooring production. The company designs and manufactures its products using advanced technology developed by Välinge Innovation AB, a sister company and the original inventor of the click flooring system. Bjelin’s production takes place in state-of-the-art factories located in Sweden and Croatia, where the company uses premium FSC®-certified raw wood materials.

One of the key factors that set Bjelin apart is its use of the renowned Slavonian oak. This material is carefully refined through generations of craftsmanship, ensuring exceptional quality in every product. By combining cutting-edge technology with skilled craftsmanship, Bjelin produces floors that are not only visually appealing but also highly durable and sustainable.

Expanding Bjelin’s Reach in the US Market

The partnership with Urban Surfaces is a major step for Bjelin as the company continues to expand its presence in the US. With rising demand for high-performance flooring solutions in both residential and commercial markets, Bjelin is well-positioned to meet the needs of a growing customer base.

Urban Surfaces’ established reputation in the US builder and multifamily markets provides Bjelin with a solid distribution network. Together, the two companies are poised to introduce Bjelin’s innovative products to new customers across a wider geographic area.

“We’re excited to be expanding our presence in the US, and this partnership with Urban Surfaces represents a crucial step in that direction,” said Bob Naida. “By working together, we will bring high-quality, sustainable flooring solutions to an even wider audience, helping both residential and commercial customers achieve their goals for design, durability, and functionality.”

Bjelin is a leading innovator in the wood flooring industry, known for its use of advanced technology and sustainable practices. As part of the Pervanovo Invest AB group, Bjelin operates state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in Sweden and Croatia. The company’s commitment to quality is reflected in its use of FSC®-certified materials and its dedication to crafting products that combine aesthetic appeal with lasting durability.
