LaGrange, GA, June 14, 2007--Milliken Walk Off Mats, the global leader in manufacturing sustainable mat products, announces plans to launch the mat industry’s first reclamation program during the Clean Show (Booth 2267) in Las Vegas this week.

 

“We look forward to gathering input from our customers to refine our No Mats to Landfill plans at the show,” said Chris Brown, Milliken Walk Off Mats global business manager. “Offering an end of product life option to reduce waste fits Milliken’s sustainable practices and quality customer care.”

 

Milliken offers an extensive range of mat products and services for the commercial, retail and rental markets in North America, Europe and Asia. The company has been the standard-bearer in mats for more than seven decades with an eco-heritage spanning 100+ years. Innovative green product engineering means less energy and water for mat maintenance. All products are designed for healthier interiors with no PVC, chlorine or non-biodegradable substances. Using fewer resources for superior construction extends mat life and reduces waste to landfill with 100% recyclable products. Milliken Walk Off Mats products may also contribute to LEED®.
