value creation through carbon,” the company said. “For the first time, synthetic sports flooring can be produced with carbon dioxide, which means less crude oil is needed as a raw material. The world’s first subfloor of this kind is now in use in the field hockey facility of a renowned sports club in Krefeld in western Germany. The CO2 for the subfloor is contained in a binder — or more precisely, in one of its components, a polyol. “Using cardyon and the ground


breaking process for CO2 utilisation, it is possible to save up to around one-fifth of crude oil in production which is an innovative contribution to preserving fossil resources.” Tarkett, itself is one of the leaders in sustainable flooring and sports surface solutions, they announced


WHY STARS GO GREEN ON THE RED CARPET


If you’re looking to press home a message on sustainability, there’s no bigger platform than a carpet – a red carpet. After all, there’s few others that attract that sort of attention. Just look at the statement made by Angelina Jolie’s children when


they turned up at the Eternals press tour, with clothes borrowed from her wardrobe, sending a clear message about how fashion should be worn and re-worn. The actor explained how they had “upcycled my old stuff” when asked about Zahara’s Elie Saab gown, explaining that it was the one she had worn at the 2014 Oscars. Shiloh wore a re- worked Gabriela Hearst dress. Emma Watson, who doesn’t often make red-carpet appearances, chose the green carpet of the Earthshot Prize Awards to show off a unique, sustainable outfit by London designer Harris Reed which featured an asymmetrical tulle skirt made of 10 upcycled wedding dresses from Oxfam. Everyone of note was on-message for the occasion. The TV presenter


Alexa Chung rewore a custom Prada dress she had made for a British Vogue event in 2016. Actor Matilda de Angelis wore one of Prada’s Re-Nylon midi-dresses made using Aquafil’s ECONYL regenerated nylon yarn, derived from marine plastic debris. To accept her Visionary Award, Zendaya collaborated with long-


term stylist Law Roach to source a vintage Versace gown in chocolate brown – one that was first worn by model Anna K on the autumn/ winter 1996 runway during the year of Zendaya’s birth. A long- term champion of sustainable fashion, Iris Law wore a floor-length M Missoni gown for the evening made from Missoni deadstock and recycled polyester by Bonottox.
