Cradle to Cradle Certified
TM
Shaw’s solid and engineered hardwood products are Cradle to Cradle Silver Certified v2 – a
third party certification provided by the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute after
rigorous product assessment. Re-evaluation takes place on a regular basis.
The Cradle to Cradle Certified products program evaluates a product’s performance in five
categories:
 Material health
 Material reutilization
 Renewable energy
 Water stewardship
 Social fairness
A certified product’s scorecard shows the achievement level in each of these five categories. For
