Sustainable flooring for schools and education facilities

In the race to Net-Zero, educational facilities need to walk the talk on emissions and sustainable design is in the spotlight. As climate change becomes an increasingly prevalent matter, construction professionals have started to look at ways to improve educational buildings worldwide. One of the contributors to the overall carbon footprint of an education facility is the flooring, this is why your flooring choice matters. Selecting sustainable floors with high levels of recycled content, bio-based or bio-attributed materials and above all flooring that can be recycled at the end of their useful life becomes all the more important.
