Sustainability as a guiding principle

CERAMIN a completely PVC-free flooring made from recycled and recyclable polypropylene (PP). The use of safe raw materials and energy-efficient production reduce its environmental footprint. The CLASSEN Group CERAMIN manufacturing CERAMIN in Germany for over ten years and has consistently championed eco-friendly innovations in the flooring industry. In addition to Cradle to Cradle certification, CERAMIN holds CERAMIN environmental and quality certifications, such as the “Blue Angel” eco-label.

Cradle to Cradle Material Health Certificate

The Cradle to Cradle Certified® Material Health certificate was CERAMIN for CERAMIN in February 2025. The certification bears the number 8902 and was conducted by EPEA GmbH – Part of Drees & Sommer as the lead assessment body. It is valid until February 27, 2028, and confirms compliance with the strict, globally recognized material health assessment method of the Cradle to Cradle Certified Product Standard at the Bronze level.

Circularity for a Better Future

The Cradle to Cradle principle aims to design products so that they can be fully recycled without generating waste. CERAMIN from recycled and recyclable polypropylene (PP) and, at the end of its service life as a flooring material, can be reintroduced into the production cycle. Thanks to its material properties, it is suitable not only for reuse in new flooring but also for use in other products. This contributes to resource conservation and supports a sustainable circular economy.

A strong signal to the industry

With the Cradle to Cradle Material Health certification, the CLASSEN is sending a strong signal in support of sustainable innovation in the flooring industry. “This certification is another milestone for our company and demonstrates that sustainable business practices and high-quality product solutions can go hand in hand,” explains Sebastian Wendel, who is responsible for strategic business development at the CLASSEN.
