Corporate responsibility

We don’t compromise ethics for aesthetics. As a fourth-generation family business, we support a transparent and responsible industry. We constantly strive to source, design, and manufacture in ways that minimise environmental impact while positively enhancing the well-being of our people, partners, customers and communities.

Product circularity

For both our own products and the trusted brands we partner with, we prioritise recognised environmental certifications and circular manufacturing processes. We approach every decision through the lens of cradle-to-cradle manufacturing—from thoughtful sourcing and material stewardship to designing with a circular economy in mind.

As we evolve our collections, decisions are guided by four key pillars: the use of renewable, recyclable, and non-toxic materials; systems that support take-back, disassembly and active recycling or reuse; energy efficiency; and production methods that minimise waste both in the factory and on-site.

Our newest product launch is Kinetex® modular carpet by J+J, made from recycled PET and fully recyclable in Aotearoa. And we have achieved Eco Choice Aotearoa certification for all our Comfort Backed and Eco Ace Backed Voxflor® carpet tile collections, confirming that they are PVC-free.

Our flooring take-back programme

When our products are chosen for building refurbishments, we go beyond product supply by finding new uses for the existing flooring. Through our take-back programme, we accept carpet tiles and entry matting for disassembly and recycling. We also collaborate with charities and community groups to support upcycling and reuse projects, giving materials a second life.

We also have a social responsibility

Advancing people, their work, and their passions is at the heart of what we do. This means reaching out to help others, so they can return to doing what they love. We have been long-time supporters of the Auckland Westpac Rescue Helicopter and the Rapid Relief Team, assisting people and communities in times of crisis.

We are also motivated to support children in need. We proudly back events such as Circus Quirkus, the Special Children's Christmas Party, The Great Kiwi Circus, IDFNZ and the Kids Foundation. Through our involvement with the Sustainable Business Network (SBN), we contribute to positive social, cultural, and environmental change in initiatives like the Puhinui Stream restoration by Te Pu-a-nga Maara.
