Our green scene is now global.
ECOstone, World of Coca-Cola store, GA Architect: Pompei A.D.
Environmental action is global. Our flooring is nowglobal, too. What began as a harmonious idea inNorth America has grown into aworldwide movement. In less thantwo decades, our vision of usingMother Earth's resources wisely hasspread from our modest roots inLancaster, Pennsylvania, to theworld's tallest building in Dubai,United Arab Emirates. Our ecojourney isn't just expanding ourgeographic distribution; it's expand-ing your options for environmentallypreferred flooring that protects ourplanet and people everywhere.
Our Story. ECOsurfaces flooring was environmen-tally correct long before sustainable design madethe scene. Our floors use 100% post-consumer
material salvaged from America's junkyards and landfills -- recycled rubber tires -- as their basic
component. We grind the tires intoclean rubber granules and tripledistill the mix to eliminate any metal,dirt or fibers. Then, out of sightcolors made from 30% pre-consumerwaste -- UV-resistant EPDM flecks --are added in. Everything is mixedand bound together using a water-based polyurethane polymer. Theentire manufacturing process isenvironmentally responsible usingminimal water, avoiding heat,reusing in-line scrap to decrease
waste and requiring no smokestacks. The result iscool-looking, environmentally savvy commercialflooring that passes strict tests for indoor air quality,low-VOC emissions and is 100% recyclable.
