INNOVATION

Versa: Where innovation is everyday.

Call it what you will: innovation, R&D, creativity, thought leadership, or all of the above. To be recognized as leaders, organizations must think and do things differently. And we’ve been doing that for more than 70 years.

Innovation is at the core of everything we do. We merge design, technology, and sustainability like no one else can—resulting in industry-first products like Circon®, the Second-Look recycling & reclamation program, and the world’s first bio-sourced vinyl technology. The result: better products, better service, and better ways to transform walls.

INNOVATION AT-A-GLANCE


Innovating in Design, Technology, and Sustainability

01_INNOVATION IN DESIGN

Beautifully brilliant.

In a world that values form and function equally, design has to do more. Timely colors, patterns, and textures are a given. 

What matters more happens beyond the surface—where performance, craft, selection, delivery, and service create value that transcends aesthetics and surpasses expectations. 

  • Leadership: At Versa, design is a collaboration rooted in creativity, craftsmanship, and technical expertise. In our studio, surface designers and graphic designers combine imagination and materials to balance form and function.
  • Process: From 500+ proprietary embossings, thousands of print combinations, and advanced finishing techniques to the industry’s only vertically integrated film extrusion, no one offers more tools and capabilities to unlock your creativity and deliver on your vision.
  • Collaboration: Versa’s design studio, R&D, and customers work together to push boundaries—developing new materials, technologies, and sustainable solutions to create distinctive, dimensional products made for the real world.

Inspiration everywhere.

We search the world for new ideas—a handcrafted scarf from a Parisian boutique, the texture of a weathered stone, or an archived piece of art waiting to be rediscovered.

Formed to function.

Because we extrude our own film in-house, you get products and patterns that not only transform spaces—but perform to your expectations.

Surfaces with feeling.

Choosing from 500+ embossings means creating virtually unlimited textures—from simple linens to complex abstract designs.

Dramatic finishes.

Versa designers carefully pair patterns with embossings, finishes, techniques, and technologies to create unique tactile experiences that elevate each surface—literally.
