Calhoun, GA, July 15, 2026—Mohawk Industries published its seventeenth annual impact report at mohawkind.com/sustainability. Titled “Designed for Impact,” the 2025 report celebrates Mohawk’s accelerated progress towards its key goals while highlighting the stories of how the company’s people, processes and products are making a difference in all areas of sustainability.
Mohawk aligns its business and sustainability strategies to deliver innovative building product solutions grounded in product circularity while lowering costs by effectively managing its supply chain, reducing its consumption of natural resources, delivering ongoing productivity gain and investing in advanced technologies, including renewable energy.
The report also spotlights product-level circularity gains:
- For the year, the company reclaimed more than 49 million pounds of end-of-life products.
- In the U.S., over 99% of Daltile’s manufactured tile collections contain recycled or reclaimed materials, with more than 300 million pounds of material recovered and reused each year.
- Mohawk’s popular PureTech waterproof resilient flooring features an 80% organic, renewable polymer core and PVC-free construction. PureTech is composed of 70% recycled materials overall.
- Across regions, the company’s laminated wood flooring collections minimize harvesting of trees by processing recycled or reclaimed wood, which keeps stored carbon sequestered by extending the useful life of the material.
- The company’s U.S. ReCover carpet recycling program grew material recovery by 133% year-over-year through an expanded retailer pilot. ReCover is expanding to include additional flooring categories.
- Unilin Panels’ patented new Osiris technology recovers and reintegrates wood fiber from waste MDF/HDF and laminate boards, which has made the Company the first to recycle this material into new products.
Mohawk celebrated exceeding its sustainability goals that sunset in 2025. The company cut its Scope 1 and 2 emissions intensity by 31% against its original baseline, surpassing the 25% target, and set a new 20% reduction goal in absolute Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 from a 2021 baseline. Mohawk also cut its manufacturing waste-to-landfill intensity by 55% against its baseline, outpacing its 30% target, and set a new goal of repurposing 85% of manufacturing waste into productive value streams by 2035. Water withdrawal intensity fell 50%, also beating the 30% reduction target, and Mohawk continues to prioritize responsible water stewardship across its global operations. Mohawk’s wood sourcing for flooring, boards and panels reached a 99.5% responsible-sourcing verification rate in 2025, keeping the company on track toward its 2030 goal of 100% verification. Mohawk partnered with its global workforce to improve safety year over year as the 2025 global recordable injury rate (RIR) dropped to 1.17, down 37%, as the company continues working towards its 2030 goal of a world-class rate below 1.0.
