We are starting off in 2013 magnificently: Vorwerk is becoming greener all the time.
And more and more diverse. As an innovator for flooring culture, ecology and sustainability are enacted at Vorwerk – and manifested in the “Eco Balance” programme agenda – along the entire value chain in all products. With this issue Vorwerk is celebrating the launch of yet another green innovation: The “RE / COVER green” collection, a revolutionary new generation of ecological design flooring. RE / COVER green is manufactured on the basis of ecological elastomers – the design concept stems from the renowned bureau Hadi Teherani.
