However the majority of the carpets made in the UK are synthetically produced using nylon, polyester and polypropylene pile fibres. Carpet accounts for 2% of all waste dumped into landfills.

Recycled carpet is a very environmentally friendly alternative, made from recycled polyethylene terephthalate, which is the material most plastic bottles are made out of. Recycled carpets have also been found to have greater stain resistance and improved indoor air quality compared to their less eco-friendly rivals.

We have ranges of carpet tiles and sheet carpet ideal for domestic and commercial use that look great, do as good a job, but are environmentally sound. Even our underlays are recycled.
