Published:  21 October, 2009

Monday 31st August 2009 marked 15 years since Ray Anderson, founder and chairman of Interface Inc., the global modular flooring specialist, set his company on the path to becoming the world's first sustainable business by 2020. Now defined as Mission Zero, the company's drive to achieve a zero environmental footprint plays a central role in the organisation's ethos and culture and has set Interface on a course that has characterised its development ever since.

Interface is now over half way in completing Mission Zero and has made significant progress towards reaching its 2020 goal:

The company also continues to push the boundaries of sustainable manufacturing, having recently developed and introduced two leading-edge technologies in its facilities in Europe to significantly reduce manufacturing waste.

Interface has won numerous design and innovation awards for its market-leading modular floor covering products. In addition, it has also become widely recognised as a pioneer in sustainable manufacturing and business practices, and is currently ranked number 1 in Globescan's survey of sustainability experts worldwide.
