In-house R&D
The tiles are developed by Better Future Factory after years of research and development. Initially designed as a low-tech and sustainable building material for African countries. Having so much potential, it’s currently being further developed for the European market as well. The challenge was to find a low-tech solution for recycling PET, that usually requires expensive machinery, while creating a scalable product. The tiles can be processed with industry standard tile glue and grout.
Certification
In order to be used safely in interior projects the tiles are fully certified by KIWA, the Dutch leading certification company, for indoor applications. Because of the sustainability impact, the tiles are made from 100% post consumer recycled plastic and fully recyclable, the tiles received a Castor Gaea certificate, to independently certify innovative sustainable products and services.
