Environmentally Friendly Flooring Styles

Carpet Installation. Shaw Floors, one of our key suppliers, offers their nylon 6 fiber carpets. The nylon used in this carpet can be recycled over and over again. Shaw Floors maintains a nationwide network of carpet collection locations.

From these locations, the carpet goes to Shaw’s Evergreen Carpet Recycling Facility. Since 2006, Shaw has reclaimed an average of 100 million pounds of post-consumer carpet each year.

Laminate Floors. Laminate floors, from our key suppliers Armstrong and Shaw Floors, utilize efficient manufacturing processes to produce more usable flooring out of less wood. In addition, laminate flooring uses less newly harvested wood than traditional hardwood floors.

Bamboo & Cork.  We offer other excellent green flooring options like bamboo and cork. These products come from readily renewable plant sources and are beautiful and stylish additions to any home or office.

Additional Environmentally Friendly Flooring Choices

Glass bottles are converted into beautiful glass tiles for flooring and backsplash options. This renewable source is a budget friendly solution for kitchens, bathrooms and other rooms in homes from coast to coast. Glass tile has similar benefits of other eco-friendly materials, and is easy to care for as well. It won’t mildew or mold in damp environments and is non-absorbent, so it won’t stain.

Cork Flooring

Cork is a new addition to flooring and is harvested from the bark of the cork oak tree. Because the tree is not cut down, the bark grows back, making it an ideal renewable source. Cork floors have antimicrobial properties that reduce allergens in the home and are naturally a repellent for insects. It is fire-retardant and easy to maintain, and keeps clean as well as accepts paints and stains easily, so it goes with any design style or color scheme. Floor Coverings International®’s selection of cork floors can last between 10-30 years.

Bamboo Floors

Floor Coverings International® carries bamboo flooring, which is another flooring option that is gaining in popularity. Bamboo is a grass that is durable, easy to maintain and is easy for our team to install. It is a sustainable flooring product because bamboo grows to maturity in just a few years and can be harvested again quickly. Our Design Associates will help find the best bamboo flooring that works in your home regardless of decor.

Linoleum Flooring

Linoleum flooring is another environmentally friendly option because it is made from tree resins, wood flour, pigments, linseed oil, cork dust, and ground limestone. Since it contains cork, it has fire-retardant properties, and the linseed oil aids in its ability to repel water. Floor Coverings International® carries a large assortment of linoleum flooring and can present them to you from the comfort of your home through our Mobile Flooring Showroom®. Linoleum is becoming a popular option again because it is a green product and a sustainable environmentally friendly floor covering. An additional advantage to linoleum flooring is its ability to last, holding up to a lot of wear and food traffic.
