BOLON Woven Flooring have just been certified to receive the G.E.C.A label for their design driven woven flooring
August 19th, 2010
BOLON has made a huge impact amongst designers and end user clients alike – now with the G.E.C.A endorsement designers can feel assured of specifying BOLON in “green buildings”.
BOLON is a flooring that sits in its own space – the practical benefits of a resilient floor covering with the design capabilities of a woven collection.
The new Botanic flooring collection is a revolutionary breakthrough, woven vinyl flooring with environmental care.
Botanic contains a new plasticiser, which, in turn, is based on renewable raw materials from the vegetable kingdom.
The Botanic collection and the new plasticiser are part of a major environmental initiative – Bolon® Green – where the goal is to be able to offer a completely environmentally adapted and climate neutral product.
The innovative plasticiser has been made possible by close collaboration with universities and colleges and the rapid adaptation of the latest research to industrial production.
“Bolon is driven by the ambition to lead from the front; to never stand still. With Bolon® Green, we now aim to offer unique products – in terms of design as well as the environment,” concludes Annica Eklund, Managing Director of Bolon.
