2019 Sustainability Awards
November 7 - The Star Casino, Sydney
Over 150 projects, people and products were nominated for this year’s ‘Sustainability Awards’ organized by Architecture & Design and In Design Media Asia Pacific Magazine. All nominees exhibited a high caliber of design that choosing the finalists was an arduous task even for the highly experienced jury. After careful and deliberate consideration, Carpets Inter’s EcoSoft® back modular Carpet tile manufactured from recycled Plastic Bottles was selected as the unanimous winner of the ‘Waste Elimination’ category. The award recognizes Carpet Inter and Above Left’s continued efforts to provide Australia’s leading Architects and Interior Design practices with fit for purpose sustainable product solutions, suitable for WELL Buildings in many appealing styles.
Our participation on the panel discussions regarding Construction Waste and its disposal with other leading Sustainability experts highlighted how CI has lead the industry in recycling plastic waste towards our mission of repurposing One Billion PET plastic bottles by 2025... and how we are donating proceeds of EcoSoft backed tile sales to the Ocean Clean-up program.
“If only more suppliers to the built environment could emulate this concept, then a range of environmental problems would quickly and easily be overcome”
