Made with the planet in mind
Since we started making LeoLine all those years ago, we’ve been working hard to make it as best as we possibly can and that includes making sure we reduce our impact on the environment. We’ve been innovators in the production of rolled vinyl, developing new technologies to help keep the planet healthier.
Making our floors generates heat and uses large amounts of energy. We introduced a ‘closed loop’ cooling system that uses less electricity and local river water (without contaminating it) to cool production. This alone has a 30% increase of energy efficiency and cut down on our water use by 40%. On top of that, we use green energy to power production and our offices. We even have our own on-site wind turbines that put excess energy back into the grid to power local homes.
And when it comes to making LeoLine, all production offcuts are recycled and turned into backing for another floor at the flooring industry’s largest recycling plant.
