Welcome to LIFCA.com
The Long Island Floor Covering Association (LIFCA) was incorporated in 1958 with the mission of strengthening and improving the business practices, standards, professionalism and ethics of the region’s floor covering businesses. We are dedicated to the education and betterment of the floor covering dealer, the floor covering installation community, and the industry as a whole.

LIFCA is an affiliate member of the World Floor Covering Association (WFCA), and our dealer members enjoy membership in both the LIFCA and WFCA. LIFCA membership is open to floor covering retailers, distributors, manufacturers, installers, inspectors, cleaners and suppliers of various allied services.

What can LIFCA do for you?
We provide educational and networking opportunities for our members, like these recent events:
All day sales & marketing training with nationally renowned author and speaker Jim Ackerman.
Two all day training classes to help our members comply with the EPA Lead Renovator Certification requirement.

We are keeping our ears open and getting the information out there just for YOU!
