At Mohawk, environmental responsibility is not a new concept or recent practice. Well before corporate responsibility reports became as common as annual reports, years before stakeholders began asking companies what they were doing to minimize environmental impacts, we at Mohawk were examining our operations, asking questions, seeking partnership with other organizations, and giving staff the power and freedom to make significant changes throughout the organization. Now that environmental claims are proliferating, it is easy for people to get confused about what is meaningful. Like all kinds of companies in many other industries, we can’t make our products without using natural resources. But we can make our products without using up these resources. And this is why we are so committed to transparency, partnership, and verification. We don’t make claims we can’t substantiate. We work closely with third party certifiers to give customers confidence our claims are accurate, and we publicize what we do to inform customers, and to have a positive impact on our suppliers, our industry, other manufacturers, regulating and government organizations, and beyond. At Mohawk, in everything we do, we’re simply committed to being part of the solution.
