In partnership with reuse hubs across the UK, Recofloor the UK’s leading vinyl flooring take-back scheme is driving forward an impactful circular economy initiative by supporting members to donate flooring surplus and create economic, environmental and social value. The initiative introduces a new pathway to further move flooring up from traditional waste routes alongside the successful existing Recofloor recycling service.
How it works
Open to Recofloor members, the process is simple and free of charge. Simply follow the steps below and get in touch to discuss your flooring reuse queries with a member of the Recofloor team today.
Assess your stock and determine what you would like to donate
Check the material is in good reusable condition and that there is at least 2 square meters left for each product type. Please be prepared to share product type, condition and quantity with a member of the Recofloor team and ensure the material meets our specification.
Submit a reuse enquiry form
Once you have identified all flooring types suitable for donation, please complete and submit our reuse enquiry form. Your enquiry will be reviewed for approval based on capacity.
Preparations
A member of the Recofloor team will contact you to confirm your submission has been accepted and will share the closest location where you can take the material. You can now start packing the material and organising the delivery. Please refer to the Recofloor packing guidelines when palletising flooring rolls. Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT), laminate and wood products must be supplied in their original packaging, neatly stacked and securely strapped.
Book the delivery
All deliveries must be booked with the reuse hub before arrival. To allow us to make the necessary arrangements, please keep the Recofloor team informed of your progress and provide at lease four working days’ notice of your intended delivery date. Failure to provide sufficient notice may result in the hub being unable to accept your donation.
Evidence of reuse
After your delivery, we will send you a reuse certificate demonstrating your active participation in partnership with Recofloor. The certificate will include volumes and the CO2 savings from the movement of the material.
We can also share the story via our communication channels, helping you gain more visibility of your efforts.
