HMTX Commercial: Portfolio and EPD Coverage
Specifiers know HMTX Commercial for resilient performance and design range across healthcare, education, office, and hospitality. If you sell or manage these products, here is the quick read on what they make and how well those lines are covered by Environmental Product Declarations, so you can win projects that ask for verified carbon data without slowing your team down.
Who HMTX Commercial is and what they sell
HMTX Commercial is the commercial arm behind Teknoflor and Aspecta, focused on resilient flooring for high‑traffic spaces. The portfolio spans luxury vinyl tile and plank, rigid core SPC, heterogeneous and homogeneous vinyl sheet, plus a PVC‑free bio‑polyurethane line under Teknoflor.
Across both brands the SKU count sits in the hundreds, with multiple colorways and formats per collection. This is not a single‑product pure play. It is a broad resilient platform that shows up from patient rooms to classrooms to retail floors.
What the data says about EPD coverage
As of November 20, 2025, Building Transparency’s EC3 database shows current, published EPDs covering key HMTX Commercial ranges, including Teknoflor bio‑polyurethane and multiple Teknoflor sheet and LVT collections, along with Aspecta rigid click and ISOCORE offerings under HMTX’s umbrella records. Several are verified with UL and SCS Global Services and run through 2028 to 2029, so they are safely inside their validity windows (EC3, 2025).
For a brand‑level view, Teknoflor lists EPDs for Nature’s Tile and Plank HPD, Forestscapes HPD, Icon Tile HPD, Rare Plank HPD, and more on its public EPD page (Teknoflor EPDs, 2025). One prominent example is the UL‑verified EPD for Teknoflor Naturescapes HPD bio‑polyurethane resilient flooring, valid to 2029 (UL, 2029). Aspecta collections show current SCS‑verified EPDs dated through late 2029 for multiple rigid click and ISOCORE lines (SCS Global Services, 2029).
Strengths: where HMTX is spec‑ready today
Coverage is strongest in the workhorse categories that drive most commercial specs. Teknoflor’s healthcare‑friendly sheet lines and coordinating LVT have current EPDs and are easy for project teams to reference. The PVC‑free bio‑polyurethane platform is another bright spot because it pairs a non‑vinyl chemistry with third‑party verification, which many owners now explicitly request.
If you sell into healthcare or education, this matters. Without a product‑specific EPD, teams often must use conservative default factors in their carbon tally, which adds a penalty and can push a product out of contention.
Possible gaps to watch
We do not see a glaring hole in core resilient categories today based on EC3 and Teknoflor’s own listings. That said, large portfolios move fast. Some legacy Aspecta EPDs have rolled off in older records while renewed declarations sit under HMTX umbrella entries. If a collection was refreshed, double‑check you have the newest declaration linked on your submittals so design teams do not chase outdated files (EC3, 2025).
If you bundle trims, adhesives, or underlayments from third parties, remember those components may need their own EPDs for project calculators. That is a common place where submittal packages break.
Competitive set you will meet on bids
HMTX Commercial most often competes with large resilient players who are active EPD publishers:
- Shaw Contract with LVT, sheet, WPC and PVC‑free resilient lines carrying current EPDs through 2028 to 2029.
- Tarkett with broad LVT, sheet, and linoleum coverage, including EN 15804 EPDs current into 2030.
- Forbo for linoleum and LVT with a deep bench of current declarations into 2029 to 2030.
- Interface for LVT, including sound‑attenuating formats, with current entries.
- Gerflor and AHF Products across sheet and LVT with multiple verified EPDs. These are visible in EC3 and give specifiers credible alternatives when a line is missing documentation (EC3, 2025).
Commercial takeaway for sales and product teams
On projects that award credit or preference for product‑specific EPDs, being documented means you are judged on design, performance, and lead time, not just price. If a collection lacks a fresh EPD, competitors with current files can be selected in minutes by sustainability reviewers.
Keep a living submittal kit. Pair each cut sheet with the exact EPD PDF and note the program operator and validity year. Do quick quarterly checks against EC3 to catch renewals early. It feels small, but it saves days of back‑and‑forth when a client’s LEED consultant asks for a specific reference.
Where to find the sustainability materials
HMTX maintains a sustainability resource hub that points to program affiliations and labels across its brands, useful for one‑stop linking in proposals (HMTX Sustainability Programs, 2025). Teknoflor’s dedicated EPD page is the fastest route to collection‑level files your customers will ask for (Teknoflor EPDs, 2025). That pairing covers most submittal needs.
If you need more EPDs, do it the easy way
Choose an LCA partner who makes data collection inside your company painless, coordinates with your plants directly, and publishes through your preferred program operator without adding work to your engineers. Speed and completeness beat headline rates because missing data drags projects and hurts revenue. One well‑timed EPD can pay back on a single mid‑size spec win. This is definately where process quality shows.
