Engineered Floors, parent company of J+J Flooring and EF Contract, has released its 2022 Sustainability Report.
Since 2010 the company has achieved a 50.09% reduction in overall energy use in all its facilities, reducing BTU utilization from just under 30,000 to 14,500. Similar to its energy utilization achievements, Engineered Floors has also reduced its water usage by more than 75% since 2010. Landfill reduction continues to be an important part of the manufacturer’s sustainability initiatives as well; it has achieved a 28.1% reduction since 2019.
“Our commercial sustainability efforts are guided by continuous and quantifiable improvement, big-picture thinking, and full transparency,” stated James Lesslie, president and COO, Engineered Floors. “At the forefront is the investment in the most efficient manufacturing facilities in the industry, using less energy, and producing industry-leading quality levels, which all mean less waste.”
According to Lesslie, the close proximity of all of Engineered Floors' manufacturing sites improves efficiency significantly and is reflected in the reductions noted in the sustainability report.
