EcoWorx Tile

Unbelievable performance, infinitely recyclable, and oh-so gentle on users. EcoWorx is everything you want in a backing, plus everything you want for the planet.

EcoWorx is the industry’s first 100% sustainable, non-PVC tile backing system. And don’t just take our word for it—the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) awarded EcoWorx the Presidential Green Chemistry Award for its environmental and performance benefits.

EcoWorx has been recognized with Cradle to Cradle Certification, contributing to U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED® Green Building Rating System™. EcoWorx tile, EcoWorx Performance Broadloom and Eco Solution Q premium branded nylon are the only carpet products to receive Cradle to Cradle Silver Certification from MBDC (McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry), a third party consultancy founded by the world-renowned architect William McDonough and innovation chemist Dr. Michael Braungart.

EcoWorx Performance Broadloom

Proven technology with unbeatable performance from a broadloom backing. EcoWorx Performance Broadloom™ delivers the fully recyclable benefits of EcoWorx to broadloom.

The recyclability of EcoWorx Performance Broadloom means that an even greater amount of post consumer carpet can be kept from landfill because carpet occupies roughly two-thirds of the commercial market. This Silver certified product under MBDC's Cradle to Cradle program contributes to an Innovation in Design point through the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED® Green Building Rating System™.

EcoWorx Performance Broadloom can help decrease the amount of raw materials used in manufacturing due to its recyclability in a closed-loop process. Since all EcoWorx products are backed by an environmentally guarantee, Shaw will collect and recycle EcoWorx Performance Broadloom, at no additional charge to the customer. That's a deal that you don't have to worry about.
