     A Commitment to Sustainability

    Sustainability through Innovation™ That's the Shaw Green Edge® It's our
   commitment to creating the most beautiful — and sustainable — flooring in
   the world. And to helping create a better planet for our customers, our people
   and our communities in the process.

    Rooted in our drive to continuously improve every aspect of our business, the
   Shaw Green Edge guides everything we do, every day — from maintaining
   highest ethical standards to safeguarding the health and well-being of our
   the people and communities, conserving energy and water, and recycling
   materials — to designing cradle-to-cradle products that can be
   raw remanufactured over and over again.

    Because setting the standard for environmental excellence, social
   responsibility and product design is more than our responsibility. It's also
   good business. And it's our legacy.

    Shaw: Improving Tomorrow's Environment Today
    Shaw is noted for its leadership, both in the flooring industry and the
   communities in which we operate. Environmental stewardship is an example
   this leadership. While environmental awareness is clearly a trend today,
   we've of been working for years on innovative ways of reducing waste,
   improving our manufacturing processes, and preserving our natural
   resources. It comes back to our commitment to our employees and
   customers,and the communities where we live and work. This brochure
   illustrates many of our accomplishments and explains our goals for the
   future.
