PURline Botanol Flooring Recognized with Green GOOD DESIGN™ 2015 Award

 
STOUGHTON, Mass. - June 18, 2015 - PRLog -- PURline botanol flooring from Mats Inc. and Windmöller Flooring Products GmbH has received the esteemed 2015 Green GOOD DESIGN™ Award from the European Centre for Architecture, Art, Design and Urban Studies and the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design. Alongside some of the world’s most renowned brands such as BMW and Lockheed Martin Corporation, PURline ranked in The Green Design 100, which recognizes the top 100 worldwide product designs, architecture, landscape architecture and urban planning projects.

Green GOOD DESIGN™ recognizes and promotes design innovation, pioneering achievements and the world’s most significant examples of sustainable design. The European Center’s International Advisory Committee, composed of architects, designers and manufacturers from around the globe, served as the jury and selected over 100 products, programs, people, government, environmental planning and architecture that foster ecological innovation, green technologies and designs and environmental sustainability.

PURline is the first botanol plant-based flooring worldwide. Produced from nearly 90% rapidly renewable and natural raw materials including rapaseed, castor oil and the natural filler material chalk, PURline is thoroughly ecological and unbeatably sustainable. It meets the highest standards for healthy environments and conforms to ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards as confirmed in the PURline EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) developed from a Cradle to Grave lifecycle assessment conducted by Gemeinschaft umweltfreundlicher Teppichboden (GUT) e.V. and verified by the independent third-party committee at the Institut Bauen und Umwelt (IBU) e.V. It also has an HPD (Health Product Declaration) with the HPD Collaborative and is GreenGuard Gold certified.

Offering extreme durability with a molecular surface structure that is tenaciously stain- and wear-resistant, PURline’s simple maintenance requirements do not involve finishing, waxing, buffing or stripping and allow for time and cost savings. Non-porous and offering hygienic properties, PURline is an excellent choice for education, hospitals and medical facilities where sanitation and cleanliness are of the utmost importance.

“We are thrilled that PURline has been honored with the Green GOOD DESIGN™ award,” said Rich Ruhlin, Vice President of Healthcare Development at Mats Inc. “As the only botanol flooring product on the market, it is exciting to see this completely new class of flooring recognized for its unparalleled sustainability and performance.”

Available in 44 color options, the commercial flooring collection features a broad range of dramatic color and a wide variety of neutral tones and patterns that are ideal for mixing and matching to define spaces or create unique effects within high-traffic environments.
