- As a company that has pioneered innovation in LVT flooring for global customers, NOX remains committed to setting the NOX Level standard — continually raising the bar for sustainability, design, and performance in flooring. Our goal is to inspire not only our customers, but also our suppliers and competitors, by establishing a new foundation for the industry.
Global Expansion & Growth
Since our founding, NOX has steadily expanded through ongoing product development and market growth. In 2020, we proudly surpassed $200 million in exports, a milestone that reflects our global leadership. Today, NOX exports to over 50 countries and maintains a strong presence in some of the world’s most quality-conscious markets, including the United States, Japan, Germany, and France.
To meet rising global demand, we opened our first U.S. factory in Ohio in 2015, expanded it, and launched a second plant in 2019. In 2021, we further strengthened our global manufacturing network by establishing a high-tech ASEAN facility in Vietnam.
Recognized Excellence
Our commitment to innovation continues to earn recognition on the world stage. NOX received the "Best of Surfaces 2012 Innovation" award at TISE, followed by the "Gold NEOCON Award" in 2019. In 2023, we were once again honored with the "Best of Surfaces" award — for the fourth consecutive year — at TISE 2026, underscoring our ongoing leadership in sustainable product innovation.
In addition, the Korean Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy recognized NOX as both a “World Class Product of Korea” and a “World Class Manufacturer,” acknowledging the global competitiveness of our product portfolio.
Design Leadership NOX leads in design innovation with over 6,000 proprietary in-house flooring designs — the largest collection of its kind, globally recognized by prestigious institutions and award programs. Our accolades include the Red Dot Design Award (Germany), Good Design Award (Japan), Innovation Award at DOMOTEX Hannover (Europe’s largest flooring trade fair), IDEA 2015 Top Honor (USA), Gold NEOCON Award (2019), and most recently, the iF Design Award (2024 Grand Prize Winner).
A Foundation of Sustainability Sustainability has always been at the heart of NOX. Even before it became a global imperative, we pioneered LVT flooring as a means of coexisting with plastic in an environmentally conscious way. Our advanced Integrated Vertical Production (IVP) system has evolved into the Circular IVP — an even more sustainable model.
We are transitioning over 90% of our raw materials to sustainable alternatives. All NOX products are now 100% recyclable, reinforcing our unwavering dedication to responsible innovation.
Toward a Sustainable Future At NOX, we are committed to setting new sustainability standards in flooring. With a strong sense of mission and responsibility, we will continue to grow alongside our customers and contribute to a better, more sustainable future.
Thank you for supporting NOX’s sustainable journey. We look forward to building what’s next — together.
