FLOORING: Mohawk explains why their carpet is green home ready
April 24, 2008
When a carpeting company claims to offer a green home remodel solution, what do they mean? This week Mohawk puts their stamp on an explanation:
- Today, Mohawk will recycle 8 million plastic bottles, turning it into 275,000 square
yards of beautiful carpeting. - Today, Mohawk will divert more than 475,000 pounds from going into a landfill,
recycling it into usable materials. - Today, Mohawk will produce hardwood flooring that reclaims wood from torn-down buildings.
- Today, Mohawk will use renewably sourced materials instead of petroleum-based
products to make soft, durable, stain-resistant carpeting. - Mohawk will do all this and hundreds of more Earth-friendly efforts. And Mohawk
will do it tomorrow, the day after that and every day following.
