RECYCLING INITIATIVE
CARE
REsponse to used CArpet tiles (CARE)
Initiative to deal with post-consumer building waste and avoid landfill
- Thanks to CARE, life-expired polyamide carpet tiles are sustainably recycled into regenerated raw materials and secondary fuel.
- The minerals are extracted from the carpet tiles and recycled into raw material for the cement production industry, which results in 50% recycling of our carpet tiles.
- The rest is converted into pellets for industrial furnaces.
- This means that much less fossil fuel is used.

_ How it works
A partnership with the Vanheede Environment Group
A sustainable partnership – where carpet & polymer are recycled @ Vanheede Environment Group
- A member of the modulyss team comes on site to check whether the carpet tiles are eligible for processing.
- The carpet tiles are removed by the contractor and separated from other demolition materials.
- The tiles are placed on disposable pallets and collected by Vanheede Environment Group.
- After an entrance check, the carpet tiles are mixed with other non-recyclable and chlorine-free highly caloric materials and processed into pellets.
- The pellets are then converted into sustainable energy.

_ An enterprising solution
Carpet tiles avoid landfill at the end of their life
Help close the loop and contribute to the circular economy.
Advantages
- You prevent that carpet tiles are incinerated or dumped.
- Waste is converted into raw material and fuel (energetic valorisation).
- The usage of precious fossil fuels decreases.
- You reduce CO2 emissions.
- After the durable processing of the carpet tiles you receive a sustainable solution certificate of Vanheede Environment Group.
