The installer feature nobody else has
Every style and SKU gets a permanent public page. Scan the code on the carton and the installer gets the current install instructions, care guide and warranty for that exact product — on a phone, on a jobsite, with no login.
Why it matters
The people most likely to install a product incorrectly are the least likely to have the paperwork. The instructions travel on the carton now, so the crew doing the work has the current version in hand — not a photocopy from a job two years ago.
Leftover inventory from a line you dropped three years ago still resolves — to the documents that applied to it then, not to a 404 and not to the current replacement product's warranty. The page knows what shipped with that carton.
Scan volume by product and region, recorded without identifying anyone. Which styles get installed where, and when. Nobody in this industry has that data today. You would.
How it works
A permanent public identifier is minted with the product record. Print it on the carton, the sample, the sample board — anywhere the product physically goes.
Scanning opens a mobile page for that exact product: current install instructions, care guide and warranty. No app, no login, no account. It works on a jobsite phone with one bar.
Reissue a warranty and every carton already in the field points at the new one. Discontinue the line and the page keeps serving the documents that applied when it shipped.
Each scan records the product and a coarse region — never a person. Over a season that becomes a demand map nobody else in flooring has.
What the scan records
A scan records the product and a coarse region. There is no account, no login and no identifier tying a scan to an individual — an installer scanning a carton is not signing up for anything. What you get is volume and geography, which is the part that is commercially useful anyway.
Bring a few warranty PDFs and a carton label. Thirty minutes is enough to show you what a permanent product page does to your warranty claims.
