This Is Where We Stand On Sustainability
When you choose an Amtico floor, we want you to be sure it’s built on foundations that protect our planet and empower our people.
So here is our strategy, in brief, for tackling the major challenges.
Not in the next 20 years, but right now.
It’s about designing our future together
It comes from data, real targets and hard work
Our new sustainability strategy has been formed from an in-depth materiality survey encompassing focus groups, surveys and data from across our business and the wider flooring industry.
It focusses our sustainability efforts for the next five years on four core areas which we identified with the help of our customers and our people.
We are still committed to producing the same high-quality product and unrivalled design that our customers expect, but we are committed to doing so with a smaller environmental impact.
This is where we stand when it comes to:

In 2021 we published the KPIs we’ll be measuring over the next five years, and we committed to reporting against those annually. But we’ve always worked hard to take care of our people and minimise our impact on the environment.
