Supporting senior safety and well-being, Ecore signs purchasing agreement with long-term care GPO
Ecore Int’l, a global leader in the recycling and transformation of reclaimed rubber into innovative, high performance-driven surfaces and solutions, has been awarded a group purchasing agreement with MedTrust Health Alliance. Effective March 5, 2025, this agreement provides MedTrust members with exclusive access to Ecore’s industry-leading flooring solutions at preferred pricing and terms pre-negotiated by MedTrust, offering cost-effective and high-performing options for healthcare and wellness environments.
“Ensuring the safety and well-being of both patients and staff is our top priority, and our partnership with Ecore strengthens that commitment,” said Kent Keith, CEO of MedTrust Health Alliance. “Ecore’s innovative flooring solutions are an ideal fit for healthcare environments, where patient safety and ergonomic support are essential.”
Ecore offers a variety of premium, sustainable flooring products developed and manufactured to meet the extreme challenges experienced in commercial environments, including healthcare and senior living. All Ecore high-performance flooring lines are intentionally designed to enhance and sustain the lives of those who occupy the spaces, engineering them for enhanced safety, ergonomics and acoustics.
“We are thrilled to partner with MedTrust on this new group purchasing initiative,” said Alison Tavianini, National Sales Manager at Ecore. “Through this partnership, MedTrust members gain access to Ecore’s extensive range of coordinated flooring solutions, enabling them to create safe, inviting, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing interior spaces at cost-effective price points.”
Ecore’s performance surfaces are backed by patented itsTRU® technology, a proprietary, zero-waste upcycling process that fusion bonds vulcanized composition rubber to a variety of other materials. This innovation not only reduces impact force but also delivers aesthetic appeal, superior comfort and enhanced sound control wherever it is needed.
