Aspecta Achieves First Just Label for a Chinese Manufacturing Facility
Norwalk, Conn. -- Metroflor announced that the Elegant Home-Tech Company Limited facility in Zhangjiagang, China, which manufactures its Aspecta commercial luxury vinyl tile (LVT) product, received the first-ever JUST label for a Chinese company and the first JUST label for a LVT flooring manufacturer. To receive the JUST label, the company had to provide numerous policies for public review and be rated on a wide range of metrics including safety, diversity, worker benefits and community engagement.
The JUST platform was created by the International Living Future Institute (ILFI) as a way for organizations to be transparent about their entire operations beyond product ingredients. Rather than a certification program, JUST is like a nutrition label for socially just and equitable organizations. The program requires reporting and documentation on a range of organization- and employee-related indicators, each requiring specific and measurable accountabilities recognized on a one, two or three star level, which are published on the JUST label.
