Heckmondwike FB is celebrating the news that the BRE (Building Research Establishment) has awarded an A+ rating to its Array fibre bonded carpet tile, for offices and commercial environments, which will be included in the BRE's Green Book Live.

An A+ rating is highly desirable as it puts the material at the top of the list for interior designers on commercial projects looking for flooring solutions with the very best sustainability credentials.

“We are delighted that our Array range has received this high accolade for sustainability from the BRE,” said Abby Chandler, Marketing Manager of Heckmondwike FB. “Our Array range, especially with our recent addition of six exciting new colours, is perfect for office environments and this latest news is set to reinforce its popularity even further.”

Green Book Live is BRE Global’s unique reference source and online listing of environmental products and services. It is a free to use online database designed to help specifiers and end users identify products and services that can help to reduce their impact on the environment.

The Array range comprises 12 innovative carpet designs, which are complemented by accent colours in Broadrib, which further enhances the creation of stunning commercial interiors. Six new colours have recently been added to the range, including Copper, Marble, Peacock, Violet, Emerald and Fuchsia.

Heckmondwike FB is one of the leading carpet suppliers to the education, commercial office and public sectors and is well-known for the excellent value, durability and high performance of its products.

Heckmondwike’s fibre bonded carpet has always had excellent green credentials, as the company is accredited to ISO 14001:2004, reflecting its commitment to minimising the impact of its production activities on the environment.

As well as a number of internal initiatives to minimise site waste, Heckmondwike FB is committed to sourcing raw materials from local manufacturers, with over 50% of its fibres currently made within 10 miles of their manufacturing site in West Yorkshire.
