BLG Flooring Takes Flight with Miniature Planes – A Unique Blend of Craftsmanship & Nostalgia

Troutdale, OR – October 26, 2023 – BLG Flooring LLC, a US-based company known for its dedication to quality and innovative design, is thrilled to announce a surprising, yet delightful addition to their product line: meticulously crafted miniature planes. While perhaps an unexpected move for a flooring company, this new venture perfectly embodies BLG Flooring’s commitment to detail, precision, and a passion for creating unique, conversation-starting pieces. You might be asking, “Miniature planes? From a flooring company?” The story behind it is pretty simple, really. BLG Flooring, located right here in Troutdale, Oregon, has always been built on a foundation of skilled craftsmanship. Our team, folks who are masters at working with wood and creating things that look good and last, were itching for a creative outlet. And honestly, someone on the team, a real airplane buff, started tinkering. What began as a hobby quickly blossomed into something special, something we knew others would appreciate. For years, BLG Flooring has been a trusted name in quality flooring solutions. We pride ourselves on providing durable, beautiful flooring options for homes and businesses across the country. But we’re also a company that loves a good challenge, and we’re not afraid to try something new. That's how these miniature planes came to be. More Than Just a Model – A Piece of Art These aren't your average, mass-produced toy airplanes. These are hand-built, meticulously detailed replicas of classic aircraft. We're talking about planes like the iconic Piper Cub, the rugged DC-3, and even some sleek, vintage racers. Each plane is constructed from a variety of high-quality materials, including sustainably sourced wood, metal accents, and durable finishes. "We wanted to create something that wasn't just a collectible, but a piece of art,” explains Sarah Miller, BLG Flooring’s Marketing Director. “Something that would look fantastic on a desk, a bookshelf, or even displayed as part of a larger collection. We treat each plane with the same care and attention to detail that we put into our flooring." The process is surprisingly involved. It all starts with detailed blueprints and research. Our skilled artisans then carefully cut, shape, and assemble each component. Each piece is sanded, painted, and finished by hand, ensuring a flawless appearance. We’re not talking about assembly line stuff here. Each plane has its own personality, its own little quirks, reflecting the hand-crafted nature of the process. Why Miniature Planes? A Perfect Fit for BLG Flooring’s Values You might still be wondering why this product? The answer, according to BLG Flooring’s CEO, David Chen, is surprisingly straightforward. "We've always been about precision, quality, and a dedication to lasting craftsmanship. Building these planes allows us to exercise those skills in a different way. It's about taking pride in our work, no matter what we’re building." The connection to flooring might not be immediately obvious, but consider this: both flooring and these miniature planes require a keen eye for detail, a steady hand, and a commitment to using high-quality materials. Both are about creating something beautiful and durable that will last for years to come.
