How We Stay Transparent

Third Party Certifications

We use independent
companies and labs to test our
products and processes.

HPDs

We provide Health Product
Declaration (HPD’s) on every
product we offer.

Accountability

We hold ourselves accountable
for what's in the products we
manufacture and what we
choose to offer.

Highest Industry Standards

We’ve pushed the boundaries of what is expected from interior materials, and we’ve got the credentials to back it up.

In 2013 Biobased Xorel achieved Cradle to Cradle Gold Certification.

Xorel has the Declare label because we have voluntarily disclosed our product’s ingredients, source and manufacturing locations.

Biobased Xorel is the first textile to achieve the Living Product Challenge Certification.

We were awarded a Platinum Level Material Health Certificate by the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute.

Biobased Xorel's Nexus, Dash, and Strie patterns are all USDA BioPreferred certified.

Xorel is FACTS Silver Certified and Biobased Xorel is FACTS Gold Certified.

Xorel has achieved SCS Indoor Advantage Gold Certification. Annual site audits ensure continued compliance each year.

We have been a certified B Corp since 2014 as a result of our ongoing commitment to the environment and responsible business practices.

Carnegie is the first, and only, 100% PVC-free textiles and materials company — and that’s a forever promise.

In 2013, Carnegie introduced Biobased Xorel, a plant-based product with a significantly reduced carbon footprint.

2.5
Tons of Carbon Capture

2.5 tons of carbon capture for every 1 ton of raw material produced.

Biobased Content

60-91% biobased content (US Government requires only 25% for biobased labeling).

100%
PVC Free

Every 200 yards of Biobased Xorel used offsets the same amount of carbon dioxide as an acre of trees.

No Finish is the Best Finish

This is our mantra. It guides our product development and innovation. That’s why all of our products are free of harmful PFOAs.
