Flooring

Flooring 

There are several options to consider with flooring.

What are you taking out?

Is the flooring coming out of use elsewhere in your organisation, does it have a recyclable content.  Carpet can often be recycled and reused, perhaps look at charities like Pennine Magpie who have recycled carpets from previous Overbury projects.

What are you putting in?

There is lots you can do to make your flooring more sustainable.  You can choose carpets that have high levels of recycled content (these are now commonly available), ceramic tiles that clip together (no nasty solvent use) or use naturally sourced materials like sustainable timber or linoleum.  Your architect or designer will be able to help specify a suitable product.
