Designed With A Conscience

Kährs is committed to a sustainable future and a greener world for generations to come.

At Kährs, we’re committed to a sustainable future. Our strategy for climate impact and circularity focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, optimizing resources, and embracing circular practices by innovating products, using renewable energy, and collaborating with suppliers. We’re not just creating high-quality floors — we’re paving the way for a greener, more sustainable world for generations to come.

Kährs Decarbonisation Commitment

At Kährs, we’re tackling climate change and building circular products. Our plan is clear: reach net-zero Scope 1 & 2 emissions and reduce Scope 3 by 42% by 2030, from a 2020 baseline. These milestones keep us on track towards achieving company-wide net-zero by 2040 and are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.

For circularity, we’re redesigning what goes into—and comes out of—every floor. We’re increasing recycled and bio-based content to lower the footprint without compromising performance. By 2030, we’ll have end-of-life solutions for all products so they’re easy to take back, reuse, or recycle. And by 2025, we’ll publish clear circularity metrics and targets to keep us accountable. Along the way, we’re cutting waste and improving energy use across our operations.

Choose Kährs for beautiful, high-performing floors that are better for the planet.

"Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do at Kährs. It guides our decisions, drives our business, and shapes our ambition to become planet positive. Our Planet Positive Journey is about reducing our environmental footprint, operating responsibly, and continuously investing in a sustainable future. We are committed to protecting the planet while growing our business in a responsible and profitable way, inspiring change and finding opportunities for sustainable development."

From Zero to Kährs Infinity - Kährs Circular Journey of Enomer Flooring

Kährs is excited to introduce Kährs Infinity, a new PVC-free resilient flooring designed for high-performance applications like schools and healthcare. Part of the Enomer® family, Infinity includes a high percentage of recycled material, reducing its climate footprint even further.

Turning Waste into Renewable Energy with Wood Pellets

At Kährs, sustainability goes beyond flooring products. We produce wood pellets from the byproducts of wood flooring production at our sites in Nybro, Sweden, and Satulung, Romania, transforming waste into renewable energy.

The Carbon Storage Benefits of Kährs Flooring

Forests play a crucial role in fighting climate change by absorbing more CO₂ than they release. Trees store carbon during their growth, and by producing durable wooden floors, Kährs helps lock this carbon away for the long term. Our commitment to quality ensures that carbon remains stored in our products for decades, reducing the impact on the atmosphere.

Kährs' Contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

The UN Global Goals, also known as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all by 2030. These 17 interconnected goals address global challenges including climate change, inequality, and environmental degradation. They provide a framework for businesses, governments, and individuals to work together towards a sustainable future, focusing on areas like clean energy, responsible consumption, life on land and below water, and climate action. By aligning our efforts with these goals, we contribute to building a better, more equitable world for future generations.
