I wonder why it's not available here. Back in 1959 we put something that looked exactly like this on the floor in our family room. Dad was convinced that we'd want to throw dance parties with our new stereo phonograph with the diamond needle.

It may be a new product that has not gotten US approval for importation yet. Like a UL certification. I notice they do list an e-mail address. I may try to send an e-mail to see if I can order directly from one of their distributors. There is such a small surface to be covered in a vintage camper, if anyone has a relative in Denmark, they may be able to purchase a small quantity and simply ship it FedEx.
Update: I just sent Armstrong an inquiry e-mail and indicated that our vintage camper restoration/rebuilding Forum has Members interested in the product made in Denmark, and included the first thread in Mel's post. I asked if the product could be ordered and shipped to the US. I'll let y'all know if I get a response.

My daughter lives in Copenhagen. Shipping is outrageous from here to there, and not cheap from there to here. But if you want, I'm sure she'll do it. If you can get the weight she can let us know the cost.

DLW Flooring is not Armstrong. They are a flooring sales organization based out of Denmark. Try Armstrong itself. Not Home Depot either. Armstrong....

mobiltec, I emailed armstrong and they got back to me saying that that product is not available in the us. If I don't find any other sheet vinyl that I like a lot, I might possible end up using these tiles, laying them every other in opposite direction how the shastas have their tiles www.congoleum.com/productdetails/CX91
