everSTRAND™: 1, 2, 3, Floor!

One in every four plastic bottles recycled in North America become luxuriously soft Mohawk carpet.

Mohawk continuously seeks ways to recycle, reduce, reuse and renew. As a leader in flooring innovation, Mohawk recycles nearly three billion plastic bottles each year. And since 1999, more than 17 billion bottles have been recycled, keeping more than one billion pounds of plastic out of landfills.

Mohawk’s everSTRAND™ carpet fiber, made using PET (polyethylene terephthalate) that is extruded from recycled plastic bottles, contain 100 percent post-consumer recycled content. Because plastic beverage bottles are made with top quality PET (polyethylene terephthalate) resins as required by the US Food & Drug Administration, the recycled product is superior to lower grades of synthetic fibers used in making other brands of carpet yarns.

All Masland products pass the Carpet and Rug Institute's Green Label Indoor Air Quality Testing Program for carpet. Passing these stringent tests enables all Masland Carpet's to contribute a full point to LEED Indoor Environmental Quality, Credit 4.3 Low Emitting Materials, Carpet. This is the only full point that any type of carpet provides. Selection of Masland products can also contribute toward LEED Credits in Indoor Environmental Quality, Credit 4.1 Low Emitting Materials, Adhesive and Material and Resources, Credits 4.1 and 4.2 Recycled Content and Credit 6 Rapidly Renewable Resources
