A privately held company, Mannington is one of the largest and oldest flooring manufacturers in the United States and is the world’s largest manufacturer of luxury vinyl tile. It also produces residential and commercial resilient, laminate, hardwood and porcelain tile floors, as well as commercial carpet and rubber.[3] Chairman of Mannington Mills, Keith S.
