In keeping with our Mission Zero™ promise, we will reclaim any carpet product and guarantee that it will not end up in a landfill and we’ve diverted more than 100 million pounds of material from landfills since 1995.
ReEntry 2.0 represents a huge breakthrough in our journey. We’ve invested in cutting edge, clean separation technology that allows us to keep more carpet components (backing and fiber) within our own systems and more recycled carpet material within the carpet industry.
ReEntry 2.0 helps maintain the material value of the recycled products, keeping the embodied energy within the recycled carpet and giving us more recycled feedstock to use for our products. Our ability to recycle Nylon 6,6 is helping us close the loop and get the recycled fiber back to our vendors. They use it to make more yarn and we buy the yarn to make new products. Our increased ability to capture and recycle backing materials will also permit us to add more carpet-derived post-consumer recycled content into our backing systems.
