FlooringXtra Sustainability Actions

Promoted sustainable flooring options

Flooring Xtra has published a guide that explains why it sees flooring as a sustainability issue, not just a design choice. It highlights options such as engineered timber, recycled carpet made with ECONYL® nylon, wool, and underlays made from repurposed materials. The guide says these products can help reduce environmental impact, support responsible resource use, and improve indoor health. It also explains that engineered timber can use less energy to make than some other flooring types and may be sourced from managed forests.

Supported ECONYL® carpet ranges

The brand says it supports suppliers that make carpet using ECONYL®, a regenerated nylon made from waste such as fishing nets, fabric scraps, and industrial plastic waste. It says this helps keep material out of landfill and supports a circular economy, which means reusing materials instead of throwing them away. The brand also says these carpets can reduce the need for new raw materials, energy, and water compared with traditional nylon production.

Used low-VOC flooring in projects

In a commercial project at Northern Quarter in Tauranga, Flooring Xtra’s commercial team supplied and installed flooring described as low-VOC. VOCs, or volatile organic compounds, are chemicals that can affect indoor air quality. The project page says the flooring choices were part of a wider sustainability plan that also included solar panels, EV charging, rainwater harvesting, and low-flow fittings. The brand says it worked on flooring made from materials such as cork, timber, wool carpet, and Marmoleum.

Offered sample and measure services

Flooring Xtra offers a sample box, an estimate tool, and a free measure-and-quote service. These are not sustainability claims on their own, but they can help customers choose more carefully and avoid buying the wrong amount of flooring. The sample box includes up to five samples and product information, which may reduce waste from poor product choices. The brand also says it helps customers from inspiration through to installation.
