Carpet: Recycling it Today for Tomorrow

INITIATIVE | 095 Shaw is committed to industry leadership – driving innovative new technologies and product solutions into the market. We're leading the way with carpets that are stylish, perform beyond all expectations, and that are green down to the fiber. We recognize that product innovation needs to be met with market education. Together, we're learning how to make sustainable choices for an abundant future.

Enviro 6ix® is a designation of recycled content in the Zeftron branded yarn systems. Wherever you see the Enviro 6ix stamp of assurance, you'll find face fiber that is at least 25% recycled content – guaranteed. And there's more – all yarn systems are composed of Nylon 6 fibers that are 100% Cradle-to-Cradle recyclable. That means that at the end of the carpet's useful life, it can be broken down and fed back into the manufacturing process to create new Nylon 6 fiber. It's a continuous revolution, leading to an evolution of the way we make things.

Carpet: Recycling it Today for Tomorrow has been approved for Continuing Education Units for members of IIDA. For more information on the program please visit the education section of www.zeftronnylon.com. At Shaw, we're endorsing a Green Edge education, so we can all make better choices for a shared future.
