Mohawk University Information

Mohawk is the only manufacturer that provides on-demand certification letters to retailers and consumers, which verify a product's recycled content. UL Environment validated Mohawk's claim that its EverStrand spun fiber contains 100 percent post-consumer recycled PET base fiber. UL Environment also validated Mohawk's claim that its EverStrand BCF and Wear-Dated Revive fibers contain 35 percent recycled content, with a minimum of 30 percent post-consumer recycled PET base fiber and five percent post-industrial material. "We applaud Mohawk for demonstrating their commitment to sustainability through third-party validation," said Steve Wenc, president of UL Environment. "The UL Environment mission is to advance global sustainability, environmental health, and safety by supporting the growth and development of environmentally-preferable products, services, and organizations. We are pleased that Mohawk is helping support our mission by having achieved Environmental Claim Validations." Moving forward, Mohawk will display the UL "Environmental Claim Validation" badge on all EverStrand and Wear-Dated Revive deck boards, as well as other relevant merchandising and point-of-sales materials. "Most everyone is familiar with the UL brand, and by displaying it on our merchandising, we create an opportunity for the retail sales associate to begin a valuable conversation with the customer," said Seth Arnold, director of market strategy and research at Mohawk. "Mohawk's recycled bottle story is compelling and an excellent launching point, as these environmentally-friendly fibers offer remarkable color clarity and excellent stain and fade resistance. EverStrand and Wear-Dated Revive are both great options for today's consumer." All Mohawk EverStrand and Wear-Dated Revive collections feature lifetime stain, soil and pet warranties.
