Gerflor launches new eco-designed sports flooring

SAPCA member, Gerflor, has launched its new Taraflex flooring solution, an eco-designed product that has been created to reduce carbon emissions without compromising on its technical performance.

The manufacturing process of Taraflex incorporates soya waste discarded by the animal feed industry, significantly reducing the environmental impact of its production.

Commenting on the sustainability features of Taraflex, David Carter, Gerflor’s National Sales Manager for Sports Flooring, said: “Thanks to its high natural and recycled content and comprehensive eco-design, Taraflex achieves a 43% smaller carbon footprint than the previous version.

“81% of the new Taraflex sports flooring is made from salt, recycled content, bio content, and chalk.”
