Mohawk Group Issues EPD for Premium Modular Backing System
Mohawk Group is pleased to announce that the organization has issued its first Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for its EcoFlex ICT modular commercial floor covering. EPDs present relevant environmental information about specific products in a comprehensive standardized format according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) guidelines. The internationally-recognized EPD also provides independent third-party verification of a product’s environmental characteristics.
“Sustainability is on our minds every single day, not only in how we make our products, but also how we support our customers in their sustainability goals,” said Rochelle Routman, Director of Sustainability, Mohawk Group. “EPDs are a third-party validated format for communicating the environmental impacts of a product. Our customers need this information, and so do we. We all benefit. In the spirit of transparency and environmental leadership, this is the first of several EPDs that we will be issuing. We are already identifying other product lines which will be added to our EPD portfolio. ”
