What's Happening
Interface Receives First Environmentally Preferable Product Certification for
Carpet
Interface has earned Environmentally Preferable
Product (EPP) Certification for all i2™ products and all Interface® products
specified with GlasBac® RE backing.*
Through Executive Order 13101, commonly referred to as the "Greening of the
Government," the Federal government defines 'Environmentally Preferable' as
products or services that have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and
the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve
the same purpose. Environmentally preferable is more comprehensive than single
attribute claims, such as recycled content.
Adding this independent certification to our products is not only a major
accomplishment in our industry, it is also a great convenience for our
customers. It's very easy to become confused when trying to choose products
that have a positive effect on the environment, but our new certification makes
it clear, WITHOUT A DOUBT, that our products are environmentally preferred and
responsible. Products carrying this stamp of approval are also ideal for any
LEED™ building projects.
Scientific Certification Systems, an independent third-party certifier, awarded
Interface the distinction after weeks of rigorous evaluation. The evaluation
process examined each phase of the product's life cycle, including resource
consumption, product manufacturing, product use, and end of life. Our
commitment to the quality of our products and to reducing the impact they have
on the environment has never been stronger.
*Standard upcharges will apply.
