an established manufacturer of polymers, nylon compounds,
custom resins and engineered plastics.

NATIQ 360 Recycling Program
Any carpet replaced with a NATIQ nylon carpet is eligible
for the NATIQ 360 Recycling Program. Nylene handles all logistics
of reclamation including locating a recycling center and
transporting old carpet from the project site to the reclamation
facility. If the carpet being recycled is a nylon 6 product,
Nylene will pay all costs of recycling and processing. The
customer is only responsible for transportation charges.
If the product being recycled is not a nylon 6 product, Nylene
will provide a quote for transporting and recycling costs.
To take advantage of the program, contact the Nylene Service
Center at 877.695.3631.
Nylene utilizes reclamation facilities
that guarantee products will be recycled. They provide
a written confirmation that
products recycled under the NATIQ 360 Recycling Program are
truly recycled, not landfilled or incinerated. NATIQ ENVIROWORK
30 and Nylene’s Recycling Programs are SCS Certified.
