1989
It was on the first of January 1989 that objectflor Bodenbeläge GmbH launched into business. The founders, Eberhard Lotz and Rolf Heinrich, were two sales and marketing professionals with a wealth of experience in the floor covering sector.

1996
In 1996 objectflor was purchased by Halstead, a family concern operating on an international level. Rolf Heinrich parted from the company, while Eberhard Lotz remained on board, and, together with Mark Halstead, developed the company to what it has become today.

1998
objectflor takes over the marketing concern Karndean International GmbH. The two companies are brought together under one roof, with their product collections continuing as before.

2002
With the takeover of SaarFloor-Systems the product range is extended to top quality rubber floors.

2008
This year saw the departure of Eberhard Lotz passing the sceptre on to Stephan Wolff, who had joined the company in 2002 as the then Managing Director of SaarFloor-Systems. objectflor took on the exclusive marketing for Germany and Belgium of products on behalf of the famous Italian concern ARTIGO, so extending the rubber floor sector by another top quality collection.

2010
The takeover of the Armstrong Riverside Works in Teesside by the Halstead Group meant that the way was open for the development of new heterogeneous floor coverings. The development of a new segment in compact coverings could begin.

2012
