INITIATIVE | 007 At Shaw, we're using conservation and recycling strategies alongside our Cradle to Cradle philosophy, in order to provide you with great, sustainable solutions now and into the future.
Americans throw away 183 million plastic bottles every day. Many of these bottles are routed to landfills after their initial use. At Shaw, we're recycling your plastic bottles into EcoLogix® carpet cushioning system for a value-added second life. Consisting of 91 percent post-consumer recycled content, EcoLogix helps building owners achieve LEED certification and offers a major environmental benefit. As we become increasingly aware of our ecological footprint, EcoLogix remains the responsible choice for your flooring needs.
Not only is EcoLogix composed of recycled materials, making it a smart solution in carpet backing, it performs four times better than traditional urethane backing, resists compression, and provides better long-term comfort and support than conventional modular backing systems. Available for both modular tile and 6-foot products, EcoLogix is especially effective in high traffic applications due to its superior durability and delamination strength, and comes with a lifetime commercial warranty. EcoLogix provides superior comfort, reduces leg fatigue and decreases noise levels – and it helps you rest at ease too. EcoLogix is a smart product of Shaw's Green Edge thinking and the right choice for you and the environment.
