Carpet made from bio-based nylon
A carpet made mainly from bio-based nylon produced from renewable sugar feedstocks.
The EFFECTIVE project demonstrated a carpet made mainly from bio-based nylon produced from renewable sugar feedstocks. The material is designed to provide the durability and performance required for interior textile applications.
The carpet is designed for easier recycling than conventional alternatives while reducing reliance on fossil-based polyamides. The project estimates potential CO₂ emission reductions of 28% to 45% for its demonstrated bio-based nylon products.
