Fuse Alliance announced recently that its Members diverted nearly 9 million pounds of carpet waste from landfills in 2012 bringing the groups total to more than 32.6 million pounds of carpet waste diverted from landfills since the organization began reporting its efforts in 2008.  Through the Fuse Alliance initiative, Ecollect, Fuse Alliance Members promote sustainable business practices throughout their locations taking a holistic approach to the environment and our goal of sustainability.  Methods to reduce and eliminate waste and other non-value added processes that impact the environment are considered throughout all projects.

Fuse Alliance Members understand the various processes for reclaiming carpet products based on its economic and environmental impact and recommend the most effective and sustainable process for reclaiming material and diverting it from landfills around the country.  Fuse Alliance Members seek the best options for diverting carpet waste from landfills including recycling, reuse, donation and waste to energy.  Every project has special requirements and recycling is just another area of expertise provided by your local Fuse Alliance Member.
