Third-party certification reinforces Milliken's commitment to material health, product circularity and sustainability transparency 

SPARTANBURG, S.C., Sept. 30, 2026 -- Milliken & Company has achieved Cradle to Cradle Certified® Silver Version 5.0 for its global carpet portfolio, reinforcing the company's longstanding commitment to material health, product circularity, and sustainability leadership. The certification provides architects, designers, and building owners with independent validation that Milliken products meet rigorous requirements across multiple sustainability categories.

Milliken & Company est un chef de file mondial dans le domaine de la fabrication, dont l’accent mis sur la science des matériaux permet aujourd’hui de réaliser les percées de demain.

Cradle to Cradle Certified® is one of the built environment's most recognized sustainability certifications, evaluating products across areas such as material health, product circularity, clean air and climate protection, water and soil stewardship, and social fairness. Milliken's certification covers the full scope of these requirements, demonstrating a holistic approach to responsible product design and manufacturing.

"For many customers, sustainability information has become increasingly complex," said Allie Bruski, Vice President, Product Marketing for Milliken's flooring business. "This certification provides confidence that when they specify Milliken flooring, they are choosing products that have been independently evaluated for material health, circularity, and broader sustainability performance."

The certification also reflects Milliken's broader legacy of transparency and product stewardship. For decades, the company has invested in helping customers better understand the materials that contribute to healthier, higher-performing spaces. Cradle to Cradle Certified® Silver provides trusted third-party validation of that commitment.

While sustainability remains a critical consideration, Milliken believes customers should not have to compromise on performance, comfort or design. In addition to meeting recognized sustainability standards, Milliken flooring solutions continue to deliver the versatility, durability, and occupant-focused benefits customers expect from a flooring leader. The company's cushion-backed flooring platform further supports comfort, acoustics, and ergonomics, helping create spaces that perform as well as they inspire.

"This achievement validates the work our teams have done to embed sustainability into the way we design and manufacture products," said Dale Kitchen, Director, Research and Development for Milliken's flooring business. "It also gives customers one more reason to feel confident that Milliken flooring can help them meet both sustainability goals and performance expectations."
