Our company is committed to changing the flooring industry to help
better our environment. With this intent, FreeStyle Flooring Products
were created using the following criteria:
MAXIMUM RECYCLED CONTENT - From our beginning, FreeStyle Flooring
has been a leader in recycling waste plastics and developed
FreeStyle products to help maximize recycle content and provide
an outlet for waste materials generated by the flooring industry.
100% CRADLE-TO-CRADLE RECOVERY - We were intent on keeping our
products out of the landfill and worked to ensure that our products
are 100% recyclable back into new Freestyle Flooring.
NO ADHESIVES - NO VOC'S - Our products were designed to be free-lay
not only to dramatically reduce installation requirements (and the
associated costs, disruption, and energy requirements) but also to
eliminate the potential for solvent emissions from adhesives.
Our mission is not simply to do good, but to be a leader in the effort
to improve our world so that others will follow.
