Scientific Certification Systems has recertified Antron nylon carpet fiber as an Environmentally Preferable Product. Since 2004, the third-party organization has certified Antron fiber for superior environmental sustainability based on a set of rigorous criteria corresponding to five stages of the products' lifecycle.

Antron products certified as EPP under the Carpet Face Fiber designation include Lumena BCF, Legacy BCF, Staple, and the new Brilliance BCF fibers.

The certified products are produced at Invista's Antron facilities in Seaford, Del., Camden, S.C., and Kingston, Ontario. Each year, Scientific Certification Systems reevaluates the Antron slate of products to ensure it continues to meet the criteria for environmental sustainability, the company says.
