Installed in both business and economy class, this specific
Wilton carpet meets the most stringent requirements in terms of
fire safety, lifespan and comfort. It is delivered as a
'ready-to-install' product to help both Boeing and KLM save
valuable time during the maintenance processes of their
fleet.
EPEA approved Norwegian wool
The Norwegian wool used in the carpet for KLM, meets very high
standards of material health, owing to the country's focus on
animal welfare and local farmers' efforts to minimize or eradicate
pollution from groundwater sources and insecticides and
fertilizers. As a result, the wool meets tough Cradle to Cradle
(C2C) environmental and human health standards without jeopardising
the technical requirements. Evaluated by C2C research company, EPEA
Internationale Umweltforschung GmbH, the wool has been approved for
categories: resource use and materials cycle, energy use, cultural
and ecological diversity, chemical safety' and animal
welfare.
“Our vision is to be a market leader in producing environmentally responsible carpets that deliver outstanding value in design and functionality and thus contribute to people’s health and wellbeing. We congratulate KLM with the first delivery of the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner and are proud to be a long-time partner and supplier to KLM.”
