Single-use drinking water bottles are a significant contributor to the global war on plastic waste and are having a huge impact on our Earth’s ecosystems…
Did you know:
• It takes about three times as much water to produce a 1-liter bottle, then the 1 liter of water it holds. This means that three liters of water is used to manufacture a single water bottle that holds 1 litre of water…!
• Only 1 in 5 plastic bottles are ever recycled
• Plastic water bottles can take between 400 and 1,000 years to decompose
• Bottled water costs over 1,000+ times more to produce than tap water
• Most tap water is more heavily tested and regulated than bottled water
• In many taste tests, tap water was preferred over bottled water
Question:
How many single-use water bottles does it take to make 1 square meter of high-performance PET Fiber cushion carpet backing?
Answer:
Our proprietary EcoSoft PET Felt cushion back recycles over 50 single-use 550ml. water bottles into manufacturing 1 Square Meter of EcoSoft back carpet tile.
To date Carpets Inters have already recycled over 746 Million PET bottles into EcoSoft, diverting them from potentially polluting our planet…
Be a part of this mission!
EcoSoft is made from 80% post-consumer material re-engineered from millions of discarded single-use drinking water bottles, plus 5 to 10% post-industrial recycled PET. This environmentally friendly backing not only meets all the stringent performance criteria required for modular carpet, but consistently outperforms conventional PVC, bitumen and other hard backed modular carpet tiles, as well as urethane cushion back in terms of durability, underfoot comfort, acoustical propensity and indoor air quality for wellness.
