Why Become FLOCO Certified?

A New Service. A New Revenue Stream. A Market of Your Own.

5 Days. Hands-On.

Learn the FLOCO installation process by actually doing it. Work with the materials, tools and techniques you'll use when you're back home taking on your own projects.

An Exclusive Territory

FLOCO Certified is limited to one approved company per territory. When your market is claimed, it's closed to another FLOCO Certified Specialist.

Marketing Built for You

Get marketing materials, catalogs, videos and access to the FLOCO Design Studio to help you introduce FLOCO to your market.

A Proven System Behind You

You don't have to figure out rubber surfacing from scratch. Learn the systems and processes FLOCO has already developed through real projects and real installations.

Support as You Grow

Training is the beginning, not the end. The FLOCO team stays in your corner as you start quoting, selling and installing projects in your market.

Exclusive FLOCO Certified Territories

One Company. One Region. That's It.

We're not interested in filling a market with competing FLOCO Certified installers. We're looking for the right company to build FLOCO in each territory.

Open territory FLOCO home market

Once an approved territory is claimed, it's closed to another FLOCO Certified Specialist. That gives you room to build awareness, generate demand and grow FLOCO within your market.

And because this isn't a franchise, you're still building your business, not ours.
