Environment & Certifications
Naturally Green, that’s our commitment!
As an environmentally responsible manufacturer, our mission is to ensure that every step of our flooring production respects the precious resources of our planet: earth, water and air.
Uniboard® Protects the Environment
- No trees are cut to produce our floors. We use only residual woods in the manufacturing process of our high-density fiberboard (HDF).
- All residual sawmill debris accumulated at the end of the manufacturing process is recycled and used as an energy burning combustible (biomass).
- All HDF used is certified as Environmentally Preferable Product (EPP) and CARB2 by the Composite Panel Association.
- All HDF used is FSC certified and in Q1 2012 the Uniboard® laminate flooring plant will be FSC certified chain-of-custody
- All Uniboard® products can contribute to LEED points
Uniboard® Environmental Policy
Environmentally Preferable Product
This certification assures to customers and consumers that our products are enhanced with environmentally friendly characteristics:
- 100% fiber used is from recycled and/or recovered fiber.
- Accomplish the lowest formaldehyde emission of the industry standard (E1 standard certified) for better air quality
All Uniboard® external packaging is made with 85% or more recycled fiber and uses organic water based ink that can therefore be recycled and is considered biodegradable.
