Values from a third party critically reviewed LCA according to ISO 14040, commissioned by Interface in 2012, and third party EPDs according to EN15804 produced by IBU and GUT for Interface.
Values shown (eg yarn type, weights or backing types) are based on real products Interface produces or has produced.
Carbon (global warming potential) is just one of the impact categories Interface considers in LCAs. For full LCA information, please click here.
