We take our responsibility to help protect the planet. But it doesn’t stop there. Because there is more to sustainable entrepreneurship and actions. We also want to make a positive impact on our customers and employees by offering them a higher quality of life and a sustainable work environment. And our impact reaches even further. We actively engage with the local communities around our sites and collaborate with our suppliers to create lasting, positive social impact wherever we operate. One Home – our sustainability strategy – illustrates our sustainability goals and details how we go about pursuing them.

Every year, we share insights into the progress we've made in our sustainability journey. At group level, the official Mohawk Impact Report outlines the broader environmental and social impact of Mohawk Industries, Unilin's mother company.

What happens to your old laminate floor? At Unilin, the answer is clear: collect and recycle. Through the Recover programme, we collect old floors and a technological world first allows us to recycle them into new MDF and HDF panels, the core of laminate flooring. “For years, recycling the panels seemed impossible,” says Geert Coudenys, R&D Director at Unilin Panels.
An industry first and a major step towards circularity: Unilin is the first to develop a process for the chemical recycling of PIR insulation boards. The new installation is the result of years of experimentation, fine-tuning and perseverance. “Turning waste into something valuable again, there’s no better idea to work on”, says production manager polyol Thomas Scheers.
