We plant a tree for every order
Giving back to the environment that supports us
Children today and future generations deserve a world that’s safe and sustainable. That’s why we’ve partnered with Ecologi to help offset our carbon footprint and reduce our impact on the environment. After all, this planet is the only one we’ve got.

Contributing for every staff member
Every month, we pay a subscription to Ecologi based on a set amount per Factory Direct Flooring employee. This goes towards offsetting their personal carbon footprint by contributing to Ecologi’s pioneering projects around the world. But, wait, there’s more...
Every order triggers an order for a new tree with Ecologi
On top of our contribution per staff member, we’ve set up a smart automatic system that tells Ecologi to plant a new tree on demand with every order placed through our website. So, each time you buy your flooring from us, a little more is given back to the environment.
