Mohawk Group Issues EPD for EcoFlex

Dalton, GA, Aug. 6, 2013 -- Mohawk Group said it has issued its first Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for its EcoFlex ICT modular commercial floor covering.

EPDs present relevant environmental information about specific products in a comprehensive standardized format according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) guidelines.

Mohawk Group’s EPD for EcoFlex ICT flooring include product definition and information about building physics; basic material; material origin; product manufacture; product processing; in-use conditions; testing verifications; and life cycle assessment (LCA) results.

The LCA measures the total environmental impact created by products from its birth, or the initial sourcing of raw material, through production and use to final disposal.
