Milliken Carpet has introduced e-xperience 2000, which offers two innovations for Milliken Carpet’s European customers, Earth Square and a new extranet. E-xperience 2000 was launched at an event in London last week.

Along with us all becoming more environmentally concerned, the Earth Square programme is an environmentally friendly carpet renewal process where the used carpet is returned to Milliken at the end of its working life to be cleaned, re-textured and re-styled, instead of being sent to a landfill site.

Further, Milliken’s customers can become Extranet Partners which will enable them to gain access on detailed information about all their floorcovering projects. Customers will be able to order samples on-line, access product information and eventually place orders on-line.

The launch event included a speech by Professor David Bellamy (above), the author, broadcaster and consultant on environmental matters. He told his audience about things we can all do to save the Earth’s resources. An example: did you know that by using a toothmug instead of running water you save 10 litres of water every time you brush your teeth? Something to think about this evening!
