INITIATIVE | 094 At Shaw, we're committed to Cradle to Cradle solutions for a new industrial revolution, and we're in good company. Together, we are working to change the way we make things – in our industry and in all industries. We're replacing the take>make>waste model of the past century with nature's model of birth, death, and rebirth. We're diverting waste from landfills and saving resources in our concerted Green Edge effort towards an abundant tomorrow.

The Zeftron® 6ix Again® program was launched in 1994 as a ground-breaking carpet recycling program based entirely on the closed-loop model of fiber into fiber, forever. The Zeftron easy-to-use program offers end-users of commercial carpet an alternative to landfill disposal. The 6ix Again program continues to evolve to meet the increasingly challenging environmental requirements of Zeftron products and others. All currently installed carpet replaced by carpet manufactured with Zeftron nylon is eligible for our recycling program. Once recovered, the face fibers are guaranteed for recycling and not for the landfill.

The 6ix Again Service Center provides participant assistance to environmentally responsible disposal. Linking the commercial client to the industry's largest network of dedicated collection centers, 6ix Again can facilitate the most appropriate recycling alternative for your returned carpet. The Service Center can be contacted at 1-800-839-3233 or by visiting the Zeftron website at www.zeftronnylon.com. Join our collective Green Edge effort for tomorrow – call today!
