Captured Carbon Material Innovations

Interface, Inc. has recently integrated captured carbon material into its manufacturing processes as a key raw material for carpet tile production. This initiative aligns with the company’s stated commitment to achieving carbon negativity by 2040. The captured carbon is used to produce a raw material that closely replicates the performance of conventional inputs while offering a reduced carbon footprint through a closed-loop system. This integration enables Interface to lower the environmental impact of its products without altering design or performance, positioning the innovation as part of its broader sustainability framework.

In addition, Interface’s approach involves repurposing former carbon offset investments into projects that accelerate carbon reduction and storage. By incorporating captured carbon alongside recycled and bio-based materials within its supply chain, the company is advancing circular manufacturing practices that support both environmental and economic objectives. This strategic move not only bolsters Interface’s efforts to meet its bold climate commitments but also sets a precedent in the commercial flooring industry for integrating innovative, low-carbon raw materials into large-scale production processes.
