Crossville Launches Two New Carbon Neutral Tile Collections
Crossville recently announced two new manufactured collections that will be carbon neutral through measuring embodied carbon (EPD) and purchasing carbon offsets to account for what cannot be immediately reduced for the full lifecycle of these product lines. The Civilization Collection and the Native Metal Collection are the company’s first carbon-neutral products.
“Just as important as style and performance, the Civilization and Native Metal collections are the visible efforts that Crossville is consciously taking to reduce our environmental impact,” said Lindsey Waldrep, Crossville’s VP of Marketing. “Throughout our manufacturing and delivery processes, Crossville is making changes that we believe will affect our global warming potential. With short-term goals of achieving an additional 10% reduction in our tiles’ global warming potential by 2024 and a 30% reduction from our 2014 baseline by 2030, these two carbon-neutral collections are a start in a more sustainable future.”
