Polyflor celebrated as top Green Manufacturer

Vinyl flooring manufacturer Polyflor was recognised for its green credentials when it received the prize for Green/ Sustainable Manufacturer of the Year at Insider’s Made in the North West awards recently.

ISO 9001 and 14001 certificated Polyflor has successfully reduced its carbon footprint through plant operations and logistics, as well as collecting rain water on site so that 96% of the water used in their vinyl manufacturing processes is recycled. Polyflor is also the only flooring manufacturer to achieve BES 6001 certification for responsible sourcing, gaining a Very Good rating, with raw materials sourced from local suppliers with sound environmental credentials and up to 85% sustainable materials used in their products. As vinyl is 100% recyclable, post production waste vinyl is fed back into new product with Polyflor’s flooring including up to 40% recycled content.

Polyflor’s Manufacturing Director Steve Mulholland commented: “The Polyflor team is delighted to have won this award, especially as it was our first time at the event."
