Flooring made from recycled materials.

Tiles come in two varieties. Recycled vinyl flooring is one of our best products because of the high percentage of recycled material we re able to include in our vinyl and still create a top quality product. Recycled content tile can be used for floors countertops and walls and may be made from either recycled glass or wastes from mines or factories. Different wood varieties may wear better than others but even if your reclaimed wood flooring has suffered damage you can have the planks milled to smooth out the dings and remove scratched finishes before installation.

Some cork flooring is made from recycled bottle stoppers. Recycled aggregate is perfectly fine to use and has no real downside provided it s crushed finely enough. There are so many options now for green or recycled flooring that it is easy to obtain the materials to achieve any design style. Recycled concrete has the benefit of not requiring any new gravel to be mined as well as saving on the disposal of the old concrete which saves landfill space.

Eco friendly flooring like marmoleum on the other hand is made from renewable materials such as linseed oil and pine flour making it a far more ecologically minded choice than typical vinyl flooring. A naturally renewable material cork is manufactured from the bark of the cork oak tree which grows back after being harvested.
