LEED Carpet and VCT Flooring Recycling Services

Flooring Recycled LLC is a serviced-based company, specializing in the removal of VCT (vinyl composite tiles), carpet squares and commercial broadloom carpet, as well as the recycling of pre-approved flooring materials that might otherwise end up in a local landfill. With years of industry experience, Flooring Recycled experts can act as the flooring removal and recycling contractor or can offer direction to a previously selected contractor.

Flooring Recycled LLC works directly with flooring manufacturers to ship them pre-qualified old flooring for use in new flooring production lines. The manufacturers incorporate some of the recycled carpeting into the new carpeting they produce. New vinyl tiles can contain up to 30% of old vinyl tiles, and even some ceramic tile production can incorporate recycling into the raw material mix. Select manufacturers have the latest technologies to make recycling a reality, and you can help be a part of it. Large renovation projects such as hospitals, government buildings, schools, and universities are ideal candidates for these services
