CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Aug. 3, 2026 - PRLog -- TOLI North America has announced the launch of Hitoe AdVantage Homogeneous Sheet, designed to meet demand for flooring that combines long-lasting durability with low maintenance and elegant design.
"TOLI North America is excited to introduce Hitoe to North America," said Jeff Katz, chief operating officer at TOLI North America. "With the addition of Hitoe, we're able to supply customers with a complete portfolio of world-class healthcare flooring solutions."
Hitoe AdVantage uses less than 10% filler, maximizing long-term performance and durability. In independent abrasion tests, the product showed 40% less wear than competitor products, and its wear-resistant surface requires no waxing or polishing throughout its lifecycle, reducing maintenance costs and supporting sustainable operations.
Each colorway of Hitoe contains up to eight microchips fused together to create a nondirectional, low-contrast visual. Especially important in healthcare settings, Hitoe makes it easier to find small objects, including sutures in operating rooms, adding efficiency to the high-value space.
Hitoe AdVantage adds a new level of hygiene to commercial flooring. When tested for MRSA, E. Coli, and Staphylococcus aureus, Hitoe AdVantage did not support bacterial proliferation, meaning the product supports safer, cleaner environments. Hitoe AdVantage's anti-viral performance safely destroys viruses on contact and has been independently tested and certified by the Society of International Sustaining Growth for Antimicrobial Articles (SIAA), demonstrating 99% or greater viral reduction within 24 hours.
Recognized for its sleek design and long-term performance, TOLI's Hitoe received a Good Design Award in 2019, reflecting its combination of aesthetic appeal, durability, and functional innovation. With a wide range of colors, from Crystal Ice to Pacific Whisper, Hitoe AdVantage can complement any space.
"With Hitoe AdVantage, facility managers and designers can prioritize safety and enhance the function of design and durability," said Katz. "Its anti-viral surface, low-maintenance, and long-lasting wear make it an ideal solution for healthcare, education and other high-traffic environments."
