Mission Zero™ is InterfaceFLOR’s promise to eliminate any negative impact it may have on the environment by the year 2020. InterfaceFLOR has been committed to sustainability and environmental responsibility for the last 14 years. In 1994, Founder and Chairman Ray Anderson recognised that business could no longer continue to use up the earth's natural resources without regard for the future. This epiphany has shaped the company's development and InterfaceFLOR has become a global leader in sustainability.
Mission Zero™ - One Earth Zero Footprint
At InterfaceFLOR we understand our natural environment. We understand how everything we do, take, make and waste affects nature's balance and ultimately our future. We build processes throughout our business that mimic nature and support the environment.
Our Sustainability Goals
- To sustain the environment by taking nothing from the earth that we cannot easily and rapidly replace.
- To sustain society by helping our employees, suppliers, customers and the wider community to understand our impact on the environment and helping them to gain a higher quality of life.
- To grow our business by creating products that are not only environmentally friendly but profitable as well.
Cool Carpet Program
As part of our commitment to climate change, all of our ranges are third party verified climate neutral under our Cool Carpet Program. All greenhouse gas emissions calculated over the entire life cycle of your carpet are offset or balanced - from raw material extraction, manufacturing processes, transportation, installation and maintenance through to end of life.
This makes it a standard choice for a growing number of environmentally conscious specifiers keen to address the urgent issue of climate change. Now every InterfaceFLOR purchase does its part in supporting Mission Zero, and we are committed to constantly re-evaluating our products and processes to minimise GHG emissions.
Driven by Results
We’re not at zero yet, but InterfaceFLOR employees are working hard on it resulting in environmental advances in all areas of our business: people, process, product, place and profits.
