Shaw Carpet Recycling: Creating a “Cradle to Cradle” Flooring Solution

Shaw Industries considers itself a leader in environmentally friendly carpet. They are promoting “cradle to cradle” “closed-loop” cycle, allowing carpet to be recycled after their useful life.

Shaw wants their old carpet to become new products through recycling, rather than ending up in a landfill.

Recycling carpet is common sense for industry and for Shaw carpets. They take “post-consumer carpet” and convert it unto virgin nylon. The quality of the carpet and nylon is identical to first-use nylon.

Shaw recycles 100 million pounds of post-consumer carpet.
