Commercial Flooring Solutions Brings Textile, Carpet Care Services to the Area
Commercial Flooring Solutions has acquired the South Florida territory for MilliCare, a leading provider of commercial textile and carpet care services. Based in Charlotte, N.C., Commercial Flooring Solutions acquired two franchise licenses formerly owned by Nexs of South Florida. The Nexs franchise began in 1996 and enjoyed its largest billing year in 2004. The acquisition will expand Commercial Flooring Solutions' reach into Naples, Fort Myers, West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Miami. "The South Florida marketplace has great potential and is one we feel we can continue to expand," said Commercial Flooring Solutions President Mike Crippen. "We're excited to add these two franchise locations into our fold." Commercial Flooring Solutions currently operates five locations and employs more than 60 people in North Carolina, South Carolina and now Florida. The organization recently won MilliCare's Business Excellence award, presented to the franchise partner that possesses the best in leadership, operational excellence, strategic planning, business focus and other criteria. - more - CFS South Florida expansion - 2 Crippen plans to expand the operations staff in South Florida to meet the growing service needs there. Soon the Florida team will move to a new centrally located office location in southern Broward County. Commercial Flooring Solutions uses MilliCare's dry-polymer method of cleaning. Systems using dry-polymer (as either as the primary cleaning agent or as a follow up to wet systems) have proven to be the best choice in meeting these complex needs. Not only are polymerbased systems more effective in maintaining a consistently good appearance and prolonging the overall lifecycle of textiles and carpet than solely water-based systems, they don't require the high level of water usage that can drive up utility costs and negatively impact the environment by excessively consuming water and disposing of water waste.

MilliCare provides facility managers with the products, services and knowledge they need to implement long-term maintenance plans that increase operational efficiencies and prolong the life-cycles of textiles and carpet.
