This will allow I4F to expand its scope of patent protection within Europe and provide its licensees with additional legal certainty of 3L TripleLock\u2019s innovative character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I4F\u2019s European patent strategy is designed to maintain flexibility as well as to fortify and broaden the scope of patent protection in relation to 3L Triple Lock and its other technologies. This benefits I4F licensees and makes it more difficult for competitors to design around I4F\u2019s patentportfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I4F\u2019s 3L TripleLock one-\u00adpiece drop-\u00adlock technology has patents granted in 37 countries worldwide and multiple additional patent applications pending. I4F\u2019s technology is already being used on millions of square meters of different types of flooring, including laminate, wood, luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) and wood plastic composite (WPC). I4F is the original creator and provider of a truly patented one-\u00adpiece drop lock solution, based on a threefold locking mechanism, suitable for laminate, LVT, WPC and wooden flooring panels. Tried and tested over the last two years by the world\u2019s leading global flooring manufacturers, no other one-\u00adpiece drop lock solution has undergone such breadth of testing to offer a superior installation system across all types of flooring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>John Rietveldt, CEO of Innovations4Flooring said, \u201cThis latest European patent is the addition of yet another protective plate in 3L TripleLock\u2019s already strong and virtually impenetrable coat of armor! It enables additional protection in Europe and intensifies our worldwide patent protection in 37 countries. We are safeguarding against new or unforeseen situations so that our licensees can concentrate on what they do best \u2013 manufacture and sell flawless, easy to install, superior flooring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our goal is to revolutionize the global flooring industry through freedom of choice and game changing innovations offered at a reasonable fee compared to the total manufacturing cost price of products.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Contact:<\/strong><br>Gilliane Palmer<br>Tel: +31 6 4189 9515<br>Email:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:gilliane@innovations4flooring.com\">gilliane@innovations4flooring.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Note to editors:<\/em><em>* A<\/em>&nbsp;<em>European<\/em>&nbsp;<em>divisional patent<\/em>&nbsp;<em>application is a<\/em>&nbsp;<em>patent application filed with<\/em>&nbsp;<em>the<\/em>&nbsp;<em>same<\/em>&nbsp;<em>subject-\u00admatter<\/em>&nbsp;<em>as<\/em>&nbsp;<em>its \u2018parent\u2019 patent application (in this case 3L TripleLock\u2019s EP 2 440 724) whilst claiming a different invention.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n\n\n\n        <section class=\"block news feed latest\" id=\"block_60d5bf9d8140e\">\n          <div class=\"container\">\n            <h6 class=\"title text-center\">\u6700\u65b0\u52a8\u6001<\/h6>\n            <div class=\"row pb-5\">\n              <div class=\"col-md-4\">\n                <p class=\"date\">2026\u5e74 3\u6708 31\u65e5<\/p>\n                <p>i4F and Unilin Technologies\u00a0enter into non\u2011assert agreement on water\u2011repellent coating patents for laminate and wood flooring<\/p>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/i4f.com\/zh-hans\/article\/i4f-and-unilin-technologies-enter-into-non%e2%80%91assert-agreement-on-water%e2%80%91repellent-coating-patents-for-laminate-and-wood-flooring\/\" class=\"more\">\u9605\u8bfb\u6587\u7ae0<\/a><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"col-md-4\">\n                <p class=\"date\">2026\u5e74 3\u6708 25\u65e5<\/p>\n                <p>Parkett Magazin &#8211; i4F: John Rietveldt in an interview of the month<\/p>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/i4f.com\/zh-hans\/article\/parkett-magazin-i4f-john-rietveldt-in-an-interview-of-the-month\/\" class=\"more\">\u9605\u8bfb\u6587\u7ae0<\/a><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n              <div class=\"col-md-4\">\n                <p class=\"date\">2026\u5e74 1\u6708 27\u65e5<\/p>\n                <p>Lioncore selects i4F as exclusive licensor for its new patented L-SPC lightweight rigid core product build-up and composition<\/p>\n                <p><a href=\"https:\/\/i4f.com\/zh-hans\/article\/lioncore-selects-i4f-as-exclusive-licensor-for-its-new-patented-l-spc-lightweight-rigid-core-product-build-up-and-composition\/\" class=\"more\">\u9605\u8bfb\u6587\u7ae0<\/a><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":14,"template":"","categories":[],"class_list":["post-1700","article","type-article","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
