“Today, most people spend 90% of their time indoors, so it’s imperative that we create healthy interiors. As a supplier of carpets, we believe it is our responsibility to develop products that contribute to a healthier living and working space. By extending the AirMaster® Atmos range we hope to offer designers more creative possibilities to enable them to build healthier spaces without having to compromise on aesthetic effects.“

Cradle to Cradle® principles
In line with DESSO's ongoing commitment to sustainability, the AirMaster® Atmos collection comes with DESSO EcoBase® as standard backing. This EcoBase™ backing contains at least 70% positively defined recycled content, in accordance with Cradle to Cradle® principles. The carpet tiles also contain ECONYL® yarn - a 100% regenerated nylon made from recovered waste materials such as fishing nets and yarn waste from DESSO's own Refinity® pilot facility, which separates the yarn and other fibres from the backing.
