The Start of New Era at Intertech

This month marks the start of an exciting new phase in Intertech Flooring’s 33-year history, with our move into a new headquarters location on Burleson Road.

When we moved into our previous space 17 years ago, Austin’s population was just under 700,000 (today, it exceeds 1 million). That was the year that Qualcomm Corp. constructed a computer chip design center here and Verizon Wireless selected Austin as the first city to launch its 3G network. The Frost Bank Tower opened in the downtown business district, becoming the tallest building in Austin by a wide margin, and the first high rise to be built after September 11, 2001. Our first toll road was still two years ago from opening.

Since then, the city and region have grown and thrived, and so too has Intertech. After a year of social distancing, quarantines, and remote officing, our team was ready for a fresh start and a place that encourages community among our employees and our customers.

In designing our new offices, we applied lessons we’ve learned from many of our commercial flooring customers about the office of the future. For example, we opted to use glassed-in cubicles in the production area to separate production coordinators while providing visibility to each other.

We incorporated plenty of collaboration space and environmentally friendly features. Our showroom is open and airy, with two large counter height tables for working in groups or alone. Its 12-ft. ceilings and floor-to-ceiling window walls draw in natural lighting. The showroom lighting ranges from 2700K to 6500K to match the color of the environment in which they are placed.

Customers can see some of the latest color trends and flooring products, both on our own floors as well as in our showroom. Our showroom library is an invaluable resource to interior designers, as a one-stop shop for brainstorming and choosing selections across dozens of commercial flooring manufacturers and product lines.

If you haven’t already stopped by, please visit us at 8015 Burleson Road, Bldg 1, Suite 500, Austin TX 78744.  We look forward to welcoming you to our new home!
