Our Green Position

Eco Friendly Flooring

Many of us who live in Vancouver or the Lower Mainland believe we live in one of the most beautiful places in the world. To no one's surprise, in 2008 Business Week ranked Vancouver as the 4th “best place” to live beating out world class cities such as Sydney, Auckland, New York, San Francisco, and Amsterdam.

At MIRA Floors and Interiors, we are aware that the nature surrounding us is negatively impacted by our insatiable desire to consume. In 2010, Cache Creek will be at capacity (where Vancouver / Lower Mainland garbage is buried into the ground) and plans are underway to double the size of this landfill (Vancouver Sun – August 8, 2008). We would like to do our part to slow this flow of garbage by turning your old carpet into new flooring products including carpet. See a short video clip of how our largest carpet supplier, Shaw Industries, is doing this today.

Awareness of the environment and how to reduce our impact on it is a significant objective at MIRA Floors and Interiors. We therefore are always reviewing our environmental initiatives and looking for ways to improve our performance in this area. We offer our customers the best eco friendly flooring options.

At MIRA our commitment is to focus on green initiatives that are both preventative in terms of the flooring and interior design products we install into your living spaces and reactive to how the products we remove are recycled.
