MANCHESTER, NH(May 24, 2006) – Carpet One recently launched their completely redesigned Liz Claiborne Home flooring website at www.lizclaiborneflooring.com. The new site is easy-to-navigate and features tools like an inspiration gallery and a product locator. Consumers interested in Liz Claiborne Home flooring now have a pre-shopping resource that allows them to look at any of the products in Carpet One’s exclusive Liz Claiborne Home collections – from hardwood to high-end carpet.

“Consumers today are researching products on the Internet before they even visit a retail location,” explained Carpet One President, Evan Hackel. “The new Liz Claiborne Home flooring website really showcases how beautiful our products are and offers some great resources to consumers who are looking for flooring online before they buy. Plus, the site is attractive, easy-to-use and eye-catching. I think our stores will receive a lot of positive feedback from shoppers.”

The launch of this website coincides with the introduction of new products to the Liz Claiborne Home flooring collections.

The company also added a range of hardwood styles to the Liz Claiborne Prestige Collection.
