CARE’s annual Program Highlights newsletter has been mailed to all retailers and licensed flooring contractors in the state. The newsletter details the California Carpet Stewardship Program’s progress in 2024, including achieving an unheard of 38.5% recycling rate. Other articles describe the carpet assessment, carpet collection opportunities, grants, products made from post-consumer carpet material, and installer resources.
The goal of the newsletter is to raise stakeholder awareness of the Program’s advancements and challenges so that more retailers and flooring contractors are encouraged to recycle tear-out carpet and carpet tile.
