Care

Care for the planet & the environment




Protecting and preserving the world beneath our feet starts with a responsible production process. We aim to reduce our CO2 emissions during our operations and replace non-renewable fossil raw materials with renewable plant-based ones.

Vertically
integrated

2TEC2 is 100% locally designed and produced on one single site in Belgium. This significantly reduces CO2 emissions from transport. We do our own yarn extrusion, bobinning, weaving, backing, cutting, assembling, packing and storing.

Solar
energy

We capture as much renewable solar energy as possible through a massive installation of photovoltaic panels on our buildings. This energy is then stored in our very own Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).

Green energy currently accounts for 74% of the total energy demand at our site. As a result, we are able to avoid almost 820 tons of greenhouse gas emissions every year.

Reusing
energy & water

  • We operate with a heat recovery system to reuse existing energy instead of using new sources.
  • We operate with a closed water cooling system to minimise water consumption.

SDGs

The Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations are considered the best blueprint for a better and more sustainable future for our planet. 2TEC2 contributes positively to the following 6 Sustainable Development Goals:

Care

Care for people & health


Did you know that people spend over 80% of their lives indoors? That’s why creating a healthy and safe indoor environment is essential for the well-being of the occupants and visitors of a building. At 2TEC2, your health and comfort is our top priority.

Healthy
indoor air

  • Our tiles and rolls do not contain phthalates or heavy metals, avoiding exposure to hazardous materials. 

  • Our floors are Indoor Air Comfort Gold and FloorScore certified, meaning they release no harmful VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Learn more about our certificates here.

  • The unique woven structure of 2TEC2 floors captures dirt particles and holds them until the next cleaning round. This results in a better air quality.

Excellent
hygiene

2TEC2 floors are very easy to clean, ensuring your personal surroundings remain spotless and healthy. Water is usually sufficient, there’s no need for harmful chemical cleaning products.
