AHF Products released its sustainability report, which highlights its U.S.-based manufacturing model that the company says supports domestic jobs, reduces transportation-related emissions and ensures a high degree of product transparency.
AHF's report says it is one of the few U.S.-based hard surface flooring manufacturers with 10 domestic manufacturing facilities. The company produces most of its porcelain, hardwood and VCT products from locally sourced materials.
Within AHF's solid hardwood portfolio, the company says its oak, maple, hickory and walnut products are made from 100% American hardwoods. Its brands like Bruce, Hartco and Robbins are harvested in the U.S., milled and finished locally.
Its engineered hardwood collections feature innovations like Densified Hardwood, which is manufactured without chemicals or fillers, using only heat and pressure, and produced in the U.S.
“U.S.-based manufacturing gives us a unique ability to respond quickly to customer needs, control material sourcing, and ensure consistency in quality and sustainability,” AHF Products CEO Brent Emore said in a statement. “Producing locally, from renewable or abundant resources, to create durable floors that last generations---reducing landfill waste and smart sustainable choice for consumers and designers. It's common sense that producing materials that last generations is good for everyone.”
All AHF's featured products align with leading third-party certifications, including FloorScore, Declare, FSC, CARB/TSCA, and support sustainability frameworks like LEED, SASB, Gensler Product Sustainability Standards and mindful MATERIALS.
