What Coverings Etc does

Coverings Etc, Inc. is a Florida-incorporated specialty manufacturer of sustainable architectural surface materials, operating from Miami under private ownership since approximately 2000. The company produces four branded product lines — Bio-Glass® (100% recycled glass slabs, C2C Gold certified), Eco-Terr® (resin-free, PFAS-free, zero-VOC terrazzo in slabs, tiles, cove base, and stair tread formats), Eco-Cem® (fiber cement panels using recycled Portland cement and wood pulp), and Eco-Gres® (porcelain quarry tiles in Asia and Hex variants). All products carry third-party sustainability credentials including Cradle-to-Cradle, HPD v2.3, GreenSpec, NSF, and Material ConneXion, and are designed for circular end-of-life recyclability.

The business model is project-based direct sales: pricing is quote-driven and not publicly disclosed, with products specified by architects, designers, and commercial builders for floors, walls, facades, countertops, and decorative applications in commercial, residential, hospitality, retail, and healthcare projects. Distribution is handled through a corporate LEED-CI registered showroom, a global professional sample request program, a download center for technical documentation (HPDs, LEED overviews, cut sheets, SDS), and a CEU education program for design professionals. Marketing is content-led, centered on a regularly updated blog and Instagram/Pinterest visual channels targeting the architecture and design community.

Revenue mechanics depend on specification wins and project quote conversion rather than retail or distributor channels, with no disclosed revenue, funding history, or institutional ownership. The company employs 11–50 people and has accumulated brand equity through recognition at the Smithsonian/Cooper Hewitt National Design Triennial, red dot design award, ICFF Editors Award, Architectural Products PIA, and Metropolis Magazine.

Core offering

Coverings Etc manufactures and distributes sustainable architectural surface materials under four product families: Bio-Glass (recycled glass slabs), Eco-Cem (fiber cement panels), Eco-Gres (quarry tiles in Asia and Hex formats), and Eco-Terr (pre-cast terrazzo slabs, tiles, cove base, and stair treads). The company sells directly to the architecture, design, and construction community through its website, sample program, and project-based quoting for commercial, institutional, and residential projects.

Product overview

Coverings Etc is a manufacturer of environmental and circular materials, offering a portfolio of sustainable surface products organized under distinct brand lines: Eco-Terr® (pre-cast environmental terrazzo in both slabs and tiles, plus cove base and stair tread accessories), Eco-Gres® (sustainable quarry tiles including Asia and Hex variants), Eco-Cem® (fiber cement sheets for facade, flooring, and walls), and Bio-Glass® (glass slabs made from 100% recycled glass). All products emphasize recycled content, zero-VOC formulations, and circular economy principles. The company operates as a single unified offering rather than a platform-plus-modules architecture.
