Carbon neutral vinyl flooring options now available

Today, many people are concerned with choosing products that have fewer carbon emissions, and a US flooring manufacturer has now ensured all its flooring is carbon neutral.

Many people considering installing vinyl flooring in Cheshire homes are concerned about its environmental effects. Vinyl flooring is an environmentally friendly flooring option, and many manufacturers have sustainable processes and often include recyclable materials in their tiles. Vinyl is also recyclable after use and lasts a long time.

However, Interface, a flooring manufacturer based in Atlanta, USA, now claims that all its products, including vinyl tile, are carbon neutral. To achieve this, the company is using more recycled materials and has ensured it is implementing manufacturing efficiencies. It also takes part in a carbon credits scheme that funds carbon-reducing projects, including tree planting and biogas plants. Interface says that its carbon neutral range is no more expensive than normal flooring.

Interface claims that by using environmentally friendly flooring, a homeowner is taking:


“One bold step to reduce your carbon footprint. You’re choosing to reduce the carbon footprint of your space and help improve the health of the planet.”

Other manufacturers are also producing more eco-friendly vinyl flooring, and they are doing this without compromising on looks and quality. Eco-friendly vinyl is stylish and durable, and is suitable for both domestic and commercial use.

There are many eco-friendly options available for flooring nowadays, including wood flooring made with timber sourced from sustainable forests, and vinyl or laminates with high recycled material content.
