J+J Flooring Group released a progress update towards its 20/20 Vision environmental performance goals in advance of its forthcoming sustainability report, which is scheduled for release in June. Designed to serve as an operational guidepost for managing J+J’s environmental performance, the 20/20 Vision sets forth five key goals the organization is working to achieve by the year 2020.
The company successfully achieved the first goal, eliminating the use of landfills, when it became a third-party certified Zero Waste to Landfill manufacturer. The remaining 20/20 Vision goals include: reducing water usage by 66%; reducing energy intensity by 20%; cutting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 20%; and increasing the use of bio-based, recycled or renewable content in products to 33%.
