January 7, 2004—The Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) has posted the carpet industry “2002 Sustainability Report” online.
The 23-page document highlights the carpet industry’s efforts in all three arenas of Sustainability’s triple bottom-line: Environmental, Social and Economic. The carpet industry has a long-standing commitment and is unified in its belief all three are vital components to a sustainable world.
“Ours is a very competitive industry, yet it never cease to amaze me the amount of unity and common ground on which our industry stands when it comes to that journey toward a sustainable world,” said Werner Braun, President of CRI, in releasing the latest report.
The 2002 report includes individual sections on the headway the industry is making in regards to each of the three components. It also includes our Carpet Industry Sustainability Code of Conduct by which our members conduct business as well as best practices incorporated by CRI members in their effort to make a difference.
