Toxin-free classrooms feature Mohawk carpets, available at Premium Flooring

Sustainable Education Every Day (SEED), classrooms are learning spaces in which all the materials and finishes used are free from toxic materials such as formaldehyde, PVC, and chlorofluorocarbons. Specifiers for SEED spaces make use of Declare Labels on products which provide complete transparency to a product's make up.

All Mohawk Group commercial carpets carry the Declare Label, making the company's Lees Sequences Collection II (pictured) an excellent choice for the SEED project. Mohawk Group has a broad offering of Declare Label toxin-free rated carpets, including its modular ranges, and its tufted, woven, impervious and cushion-backed broadlooms.

Rachel Alexander of Premium Flooring says the firm believes that, as with food products, consumers should know what's in their building materials.

"Declare Labels on our Mohawk carpets allow us to communicate this easily. Kids learn and play on the floor it makes sense that we know what our children are exposed to on a daily basis," she says.
