When choosing new floors, you can show your style and take care of the environment. Shaw's "green" carpets and hardwood designs show that environmental responsibility and fashionable design aren't mutually exclusive.

The labels of Shaw's new carpet styles made from Anso Nylon feature information concerning the recycled content of these products. Evergreen Nylon Recycling, Shaw's nylon recycling operation in Augusta, Georgia, converts post-consumer nylon carpet and converts it back in to its original material, caprolactam---the building block for nylon fiber. The Evergreen caprolactam is then mixed with new caprolactam duting the manufacturing process, and new nylon fiber is made. Although Anso Nylon products receive nylon produced with Evergreen carpolactam, actual recycled content in the product will vary from sample to sample.

Anso Nylon carpets, are also some of our most beautiful and stylish. Many of them feature the bold designs and patterns that are all the rage in interiors.
