Tarkett To Present ReStart Award

Chagrin Falls, OH, Aug. 16, 2012 -- Tarkett will recognize people who fully utilize its ReStart Recycling and Reclamation Program with a ReStart Award.

The ReStart Award will be presented to the architect, designer, building owner, contractor/installer, and/or distributor whose project has successfully diverted flooring from landfills using the ReStart Program.
Entries will fall into one of two categories and the winners will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to Greenbuild 2013 for an official award presentation.

The two award categories are Dedication to Continuous Recycling and Largest Volume of Recycled Product.

The Dedication to Continuous Recycling award will be given to the individual with the largest number of projects that recycled flooring through the ReStart program over the previous 12 months.

The Largest Volume of Recycled Product will be awarded to the one individual project that sends the most square-footage of flooring through the ReStart program. This award may span more than 12 months due to the size of the project.

Since its inception, the ReStart program has recycled over 900 million pounds of material both internally and externally including 55 million pounds of post-consumer material and diverted it from landfills, Tarkett said.
