American consumers use and discard millions of plastic soft drink containers every day. Mohawk has perfected a way to recycle these plastic containers into beautiful, luxurious carpet.

Because plastic beverage bottles are made with top quality PET (polyethylene terephthalate) resins as required by the US Food & Drug Administration, the recycled product is superior to lower grades of synthetic fibers used in making other brands of carpet yarns. PET bottles are sorted, ground into fine chips, and then cleaned. These chips are then melted and extruded into fiber and spun into carpet yarn. We control every aspect of the process and are able to provide the finest quality to meet the highest standards of performance.
