Yes, there are several environmental certifications for floor coverings:

Sustainability certifications

• A certification based on the NSF/ANSI 332 standard evaluates resilient floor coverings according to environmental, health and social impact criteria.
• An environmental label certifies that the covering is made from highly renewable or recycled materials.

Sustainable management certifications

• A certification guarantees responsible forest management for wood coverings.
• A global forest certification programme is also available.

Standards and labels

• A compulsory marking since 2007 for all floor coverings in Europe.
• A classification certifies the suitability for a specific use and the performance of the covering.
