Neolith promotes the circular economy
Neolith's sustainable nature, recognised internationally by architects and interior designers, has been key to obtaining the Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze certificate, both for its production processes and for the composition of its products:
.Natural composition: Made from clays, feldspar, oxides and up to 20 different natural minerals, Neolith does not contain resins or plastics in its formulation.
.100% recyclable: Thanks to its natural composition, Neolith can be recycled, extending the life cycle of its products.
.98R: To reduce the consumption of materials, Neolith has increased the recycling of raw materials during the production process and has some models that contain up to 98% recycled material in their composition, thus contributing to the recycling of waste and its subsequent reuse.
.No crystalline silica in its composition: Neolith promotes taking care of its entire value chain and does not add crystalline silica to the composition of its products, positioning itself as one of the most sustainable surfaces on the market with the lowest range of crystalline silica content in the industry.
About Cradle to Cradle Certified®
Cradle to Cradle Certified® is a registered trademark of the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute, a prestigious and internationally recognized institution used by designers, brands, retailers and manufacturers to certify the creation of safe, circular and equitable products and materials. This accreditation allows the performance of a product to be verified in five key areas that analyse the circular nature of products, thus generating a global product certification standard:
.Material Health: ensures the materials used to manufacture a product are safe for human health and the environment and do not contain toxic substances.
.Product Circularity: assesses the life cycle of products at different levels, analysing the origin of their materials, design and future recovery pathways.
.Clean Air & Climate Protection: analyses whether the manufacturing processes of products protect air quality, contributing to reduce greenhouse gasses emissions, and use renewable and clean energy. In this category, Neolith has obtained the Silver score for the installation of solar panels in its facilities, which supply part of its electricity consumption, as well as for the use of electricity for the production process from sources with a guarantee of renewable origin.
.Water & Soil Stewardship: seeks to ensure that water and soil quality and their management are preserved or improved throughout the entire life cycle of the product.
.Social Fairness: companies must be committed to defending human rights and promoting fair and equitable practices.
The Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze product certification recognizes that most Neolith products meet this global standard. The complete list can be consulted officially on the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute website:
In addition to obtaining the Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze certification, Neolith has improved its positioning of the EcoVadis Gold seal during 2024, increasing its percentile from 97 to 98, and has renewed its Zero Waste certification as excellent. During this period, Neolith has reaffirmed its continuity with the United Nations Compact by supporting its 10 principles for sustainable development to fully incorporate sustainability into its operations, thus contributing to creating safer and more sustainable products for the future.
