Hard Surface Flooring: Sustainability & Your Home
Wood and Cork
Wood and cork can be an infinite resource when the forest source is managed responsibly. Look for the PEFC-Certified label, which guarantees that the wood or cork comes from regulated and sustainably managed forests. By choosing our products carefully, you are playing a part in preserving nature's beauty for generations to come.
Laminate
As a renewable source, trees play a crucial role in combatting climate change. To help preserve tree life, the wooden core of laminate flooring contains 100% recovered wood to reduce its carbon footprint. However, it's worth noting that not all laminate floors are constructed in the same way, so talk to us first before selecting laminate flooring for your home.
Hybrid Vinyl
Plastic-based products harbour many things that can negatively affect our health - PFAS and BPA are commonly known examples. If you are looking for hybrid vinyl flooring for your home, keep an eye out for quality virgin vinyl, which is guaranteed to be phthalate-free and healthier for your home.
Indoor Air Quality
In today's world, a significant portion of our lives can be spent indoors, which is why indoor air quality is so important. Ensure any flooring products selected for your home will take care of you and your family. Ask about the emission certifications and labels that your floor has passed.
