Carpet America Recovery Effort Names Chairman of the Board
"Our organization is challenged with approaching the multi-stakeholder dynamics of our industry, and producing long-term sustainable solutions for carpet recovery and recycling," said McSheehy. "CARE has set ambitious goals and objectives, and I hope to offer the leadership necessary to put credible mechanisms in place to reach our mission."
McSheehy has participated on CARE's board of directors since 2006, previously serving as vice chair and treasurer. He has 38 years of experience in the textile industry, and has been actively involved in carpet fiber recycling since 1993. He has worked with Bristol, Virginia-based Universal Fiber Systems LLC for more than 24 years, currently serving as vice president of innovation, sustainability and intellectual property.
Beyond his commitments to CARE, McSheehy is also incoming president of the board of trustees of Johnston Memorial Hospital in Abingdon, Virginia and Chairman of the Development Committee of St. Anne Catholic Church in Bristol.
