Our flooring and rugs are made with recycled material and can be recycled again. The PVC polymer in our products can be recycled seven times or more. The chalk can be recycled infinite times.

At Bolon, we have our very own recycling plant, where we can recycle our own products if no permanent adhesives have been used and the floors originate within the EU. 

What are Bolon's next steps when it comes to sustainability?
