By identifying four areas—people, processes, product, and planet – Wilsonart brings its ideas and actions about sustainability online. Its newly launched website aims to offer information about the green elements of the company’s products, as well as its plans for the future.
Rajesh Ramamurthy, director of sustainability for Wilsonart, says, "As our manufacturing and distribution networks have expanded worldwide, our impact on the environment has become increasingly important. But the fact is, environmental stewardship has always been our policy of good business." He goes on to mention that sustainable processes and products will prove to be an opportunity for innovation and development in the future for the decorative surfacing industry.
Wilsonart has worked to identify and monitor programs and to develop a plan for continuous environmental improvement in all aspects of the company’s products and processes. This year, the company’s key products (laminate, flooring, and solid surface) have been certified for recycled content by Scientific Certification Systems (SCS), the third-party endorser of environmental sustainability claims.
From programs that help employees work in a healthy environment to detailed information about the product construction (including ingredients), certifications and performance technical data for each Wilsonart surface, the new website provides details to help users make informed decisions when specifying the company’s products.
