ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY

Standard Carpets is continuously investing in new technologies which are energy efficient and use little or no water during manufacturing.  All our yarn systems are manufactured using the solution dyed technology.  With this technology there is no water pollution and no toxic chemicals are produced. Our carpets emit virtually no VOCs into a closed environment. The test criterion incorporates Carpet and Rug Institute Green Label Plus program ASTM D 5116.

Standard Carpets has also tied up with a leading manufacturer of Vinyl flooring to collect post-installation waste from Vinyl installation. About 20,000 tons of waste is recycled with REACH norms.  The waste is then calendared to form a recycled sheet which is used as backing in our tiles.

With an export market of over 54 countries, we are aware of the green house gasses created from transporting goods from port to port. Our polyurethane tile backing system has cut down our energy consumption by 45% on our tile backing line and increased productivity by 20%. In addition, these polyurethane tiles are 20% lighter than the conventional vinyl tiles. The major impact of this is on the reduction of green house gases as less fossil fuel is consumed to move these products all around the globe. In 2010, we will also invest in recycling the entire waste produced from backing lines to be re used as backing for our broadloom products.
