INITIATIVE | 033 In an ecosystem, nothing lives alone. At Shaw, we share your commitment to the health and well-being of the planet, and were always looking into smart partnerships that lead to interesting and unprecedented results. Our Green Edge initiatives range in scale and investment, but what they all have in common is their capacity to delight and inspire change.
Shaw Industries has partnered with Cradle to Cradle holdings to create sustainable greeting cards that can be recycled into carpet tiles after use. Like Shaws EcoSolution Q fiber and EcoWorx backing, the cards are certified by MBDC as technical nutrients. This means they are designed to flow safely through multiple life cycles. Instead of being downcycled or entering the planets waste stream, our Eco cards keep on working for the planets benefit. Each and every card comes with a unique two-way return postage-paid envelope that allows its ingredients to be safely reused rather than discarded. We'll use the cards to make new carpet tiles. So go ahead and send us a postcard from the Green Edge!
