Carpet retailer Tapi Carpets & Floors has announced the launch of its latest innovation, Tapi Eleven made with Nike Grind.
The new product uses Nike Grind, a global sustainability program that helps transform manufacturing scrap, unused manufacturing materials and end-of-life shoes into recycled Nike Grind materials.
Nike Grind began as a grassroots initiative in 1992 to repurpose shoes headed for landfills. Rubber, foam, fiber, leather and textiles are collected, separated, and reused or processed into new Nike Grind materials. These Nike Grind materials are incorporated into partner products ranging from furniture to playgrounds, as well as Nike footwear and apparel.
The recycled Tapi underlay is made with at least 20% Nike Grind foam from manufacturing scrap. The perfect foundation for your new carpet, it provides luxurious comfort, extra insulation, and a springy feel underfoot.
Tapi are the only UK retailer to offer Nike Grind as part of their underlay collection.
Charlie Harris, Director of Buying, is thrilled with the innovation: “We’re extremely proud to be launching this incredible product made with Nike Grind. Tapi Eleven made with Nike Grind offers incredible comfort underfoot at an affordable price and we are sure this is going to be a real hit with our customers.”
