Mannington earns green certifications for hardwood flooring
SALEM, N.J.—Mannington Mills has earned both Phase 1 and Phase 2 certifications from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for the company’s domestically produced engineered hardwood flooring products.
The mill was able to achieve this certification almost one full year before the mandated deadline for Phase 2 compliance because its High Point, N.C., manufacturing facility has been using no added formaldehyde (NAF) adhesives systems for over 15 years.
“Good indoor air quality characteristics are a key product feature of all Mannington floors, and it’s a topic of keen interest to both our residential and commercial customers,” said Dave Kitts, Mannington’s vice president—environment.
Mannington also imports a line of hardwood flooring from Mannington-certified vendors outside the U.S. Those suppliers already meet Phase 1 and will earn Phase 2 compliance later this year, well ahead of the January 2010 deadline.
