Our Story
Cal Oak as it was known at its conception, started out as a hardwood sawmill and flooring producer in 1965. In early 1990 we changed the name to Cal-Flor Accessory Systems and focused on flooring accessories. We have been serving the flooring industry by providing "everything but the floor" for over 20 years.
Cal-Flor is a progressive, innovative company focusing on a field taken for granted by some, avoided by many, yet appreciated by few. Through this specialized focus on a central, but difficult to master, sector of the flooring industry, we have been able to maximize the efficiency of our partners' accessory programs; resulting in greater focus and increased profits.
Cal-Flor continues to develop and test new products and accessories. Our unique programs and services provide our partners with innovative solutions to help sustain their businesses as efficiently as possible.
Cal-Flor is one of the earliest manufacturers of color-matched moldings for prefinished flooring, and has a number of firsts in its long history of success:
•The first to bring the D3 T&G glue certification to the US
•The first to adhere a moisture barrier to the foam underlayment, creating "2 in one"
•The first to produce a "floating floor" video in the Western hemisphere.
•The first to produce a color-matched, bendable molding for laminates our Uni-Molding.
•The first to provide ColorFill in the United States
•The first to join the moisture edge-sealing AND pre-applied glue processes into a single system for laminate and wood flooring.
•The first to create an all surfaces flooring repair kit
•The first to create and document a Professional Flooring inspection kit/Guide

Flooring accessories, while being a critical element of any successful flooring line, has long been the proverbial thorn in the side of manufacturers, distributors and consumers. But it no longer has to be that way, thanks to Cal-Flor Accessory Systems and our unique programs!
