Flooring manufacturer celebrates 60th anniversary milestone
British flooring manufacturer Amtico celebrated a significant milestone this year as it reached its 60th anniversary.
Since 1964, Amtico has pioneered luxury vinyl tile (LVT) flooring and British manufacturing from its UK HQ and factory in Coventry.
To kick off its anniversary year, Amtico had a roster of celebrations and activities planned throughout 2024.
The festivities started with a simultaneous cake cutting across its four UK sites (Coventry, Solihull, Pilot Park and the London studio) as well as its new office and studio in Düsseldorf’s Media Harbour in Germany.
Employees from all departments gathered to sing happy birthday and enjoy a slice of cake while recognising the hard work of everyone at the company – including Amtico’s longest-serving employee, maintenance engineer David Quinn, who celebrated his 47th anniversary.
Amtico CEO Jonathan Duck said: “We're thrilled to be celebrating this significant milestone in our brand's history.
“We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to our loyal customers, dedicated employees, and valued retailers who have been instrumental in our success over the years.
“Their unwavering support and trust have been crucial in the company's growth and achievements.
“Throughout our journey, we have strived to deliver exceptional products and world-class service, always keeping our customers' needs at the forefront.
“As we reflect on the past 60 years, we are proud of the achievements and milestones we have accomplished.
“We have overcome challenges, adapted to changing market dynamics, and embraced new trends and technologies to stay ahead in a competitive landscape.
“Looking to the future, we remain committed to delivering high-quality, design-led flooring as we continue to be a trusted brand that our customers can rely on.
“Here's to the next 60 years of success, design, innovation, and making a positive impact in the lives of our customers.”
In 2023 alone, Amtico fundraised or provided volunteers for over ten local organisations, including Heart of England Forest, Myton Hospice and the ‘Make Good Grow’ foundation.
To further support important causes, colleagues at Amtico voted for not one but two charities in 2024 as part of its ‘Charity of the Year’ initiative.
Throughout the year, the company continued its partnership with Birmingham’s Children's Hospital for a second consecutive year and introduced the Alzheimer’s Society to the fundraising efforts.
