Disclosed is a materials handling system (100), a patterned product, and process of fabricating a patterned product, such as non-pvc thermoplastic, through-color, flooring product includes a narrow, long- grained, striated color pattern. The process includes mixing colored particles into a mixed composition, receiving the mixed composition between calendering rolls wherein a front calendering roll (122) which is hotter than a back calendering roll (120), and forming a product with an elongated pattern. The materials handling system includes a mixing portion (102) disposed to mix colored particles into a mixed composition (108). The system also includes a processing portion (104) disposed to receive the mixed composition, the processing portion having a front calendering roll (122) which is hotter than a back calendering roll (120). |
