Environmental impact<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Recyclable doesn\u2019t mean recycled.<\/span><\/span><\/h1>

An environmental claim is only as good as what stands behind it. Here is what ONE-DNA\u2122<\/span> can influence by design, what we measure, and what still depends on everyone who handles a surface after us.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

A surface\u2019s life<\/span><\/span><\/p>

<\/div>

Design decides the start. Many hands decide the end.<\/span><\/span><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

By the time a surface is lifted, most of what decides its future was chosen years earlier. Some of it is ours to design. The rest is not.<\/span><\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

ONE-DNA\u2122<\/span> works on steps 01 and 02: one material route per product and no conventional latex or polyurethane coating, so there is less to separate later. That creates the conditions for recovery. It does not guarantee it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

From recyclable to recycled<\/span><\/span><\/p>

<\/div>

Three questions before anything is recycled.<\/span><\/span><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u2018Recyclable\u2019 only answers the first. A surface is recycled when all three are true where it ends up.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Can it be recycled?<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

Technically possible.<\/span><\/span><\/p>
