Armstrong World Industries (Lancaster, Pa.) announced Wednesday it has sold its distributorship Patriot Flooring Supply Inc. (Pompton Plains, N.J.) to the Belknap White Group (Mansfield, Mass.). The sale was finalized on Sept. 1.
"Armstrong's strategy is to focus on our core businesses-flooring and ceilings," said Armstrong Flooring Products CEO Frank Ready. "Patriot distributes hardwood and laminate flooring, and we're in the business of making and marketing floors. So this is a strategic decision that makes sense for all three parties-Armstrong, Patriot and The Belknap White Group."
The Belknap Group distributes products in upstate New York and the New England area; Patriot also serves New England, as well as the New York City metropolitan area and northern New Jersey.
