We’re committed to sustainability in flooring. We develop and manufacture our environmentally-friendly flooring using recycled and sustainably managed materials. We integrate dry adhesive technologies wherever we can to reduce pollution and waste and to lessen ecological impact.
Flooring with a world of difference
We’re dedicated to reducing flooring waste and use recycled materials wherever we can. We manufacture our specialised sports cradles and acoustic underlays from recycled vehicle tyres, which prevents thousands of worn tyres from going to landfill every year. To support sustainability, the wooden battens we use are from FSC® certified sourced timber. As part of InstaGroup our environmental management system is certified ISO 14001.

Reducing landfill, improving lives
InstaFloor partners with organisations in other countries to recycle old vehicle tyres and reduce landfill. In South Africa, InstaFloor SA Pty works in partnership with Van Dyck: our commitment to sustainability is contributing to healthier lives, and preventing environmental problems caused by tyre dumps.
Recycling worn vehicle tyres in South Africa:
- Prevents hazardous waste and reduces landfill and environmental damage.
- Reduces deadly outbreaks of disease. Tyre dumps can become infested with rodents which spread illness. Discarded tyres also collect stagnant water, a breeding ground for mosquitoes and disease.
- Stops tyre fires breaking out, which can lead to black smoke, polluted air, and contaminated water courses and soil.
- Creates local employment.
- Produces useful new environmentally-friendly products such as acoustic underlay and gym flooring.
Innovation for the environment
We are leading the way with our development of adhesive-free flooring and dry adhesive systems. These use no messy adhesives or noxious glues. They’re kinder to the environment, and support sustainability in flooring, making re-lifting and re-using floor coverings faster and easier.
InstaLay acoustic underlay
Reduces the need for environmentally harmful subfloor preparations
High-grab dry adhesive is integrated into the design
to offer a clean installation
No hazardous emissions or odours that can cause health issues
Flooring is uncontaminated by subfloor preparation compounds, making it easier to recycle.
Ezy-Install magnetic flooring
Adhesive-free flooring – no glues, no mess and no waste Easy to replace damaged tiles/sections and update designs Sustainable system developed in partnership with IOBAC.
Earth-friendly floor coverings
Through our partnership with Innov8Floors we use:
PVC-free flooring (LCT)
to help prevent toxic plastic waste and reduce the contamination of our world.
Linoleum flooring (LLT)
made from linseed oil rather than petro-chemicals, which have a high impact on our environment.
Sustainable engineered wood flooring timber
that comes from traceable and sustainable sources.
