Sustainability

INZIDE Commercial is much more than a Commercial Interiors Company

Sustainability is central to the philosophy and business objectives of INZIDE Commercial. InterfaceFLOR (the carpet tile manufacturer) has an international goal to becoming the first sustainable enterprise on earth by the year 2020 – this is called MissionZero.

But what is sustainability? For many people, sustainability translates into being "environmentally friendly", but it is broader than that. It represents much more than reducing waste, protecting wildlife species and recycling. Sustainability is a process.

Understanding and adopting sustainable business practices requires a new awareness of the world; the whole world, its natural systems and all of its species. It requires a deeper understanding of how the Earth works, and how man's processes affect nature's delicate balance. In essence you do well financially by doing good environmentally. This is not a cop out – it is a fact.

InterfaceFLOR globally is a sustainability powerhouse

But it is no good as their partner in New Zealand to say that that is enough and rest on their laurels. What are we doing in New Zealand to reduce our carbon footprint, to reduce carpet going into landfill, to challenge the building community on their build and demolish processes? And that is our challenge and one that we continually seek to raise the benchmark on.

On the right you can see what we are doing in New Zealand. These are reality, not Greenwash.

Below you can see what our future journey looks like. Again reality that we want you to call us up on.  Sustainability is a journey not a destination. Together we can make a real difference. It starts with you, and me – not looking over the fence at your neighbour and saying if only……please read our Goals and KPI's.
