Ever heard of aluminum flooring? I certainly had not until an aluminum flooring product was passed across my desk. Aluminum is a great product for recycling as we have seen in other products here on 3rings. The Botanist Collection by Orange 22 is a series of philanthropist benches made from recycled aluminum that was featured just weeks ago. Bio-luminum Tiles by Coverings Etc. are a wall tile made from 100% recycled airplane aluminum.

AlumaFloor.

AlumaFloor is a recycled aluminum flooring product made from 17.21% post consumer recycled material and 33.35% post industrial recycled material. To further its sustainable qualities, at the end of its life span, AlumaFloor is 100% recyclable. Aluminum recycling is important because manufacturing products from raw aluminum takes a lot of energy and produces air and water pollution. Recycled aluminum uses 5% of the energy necessary to process raw aluminum and creates 95% less air pollution and 97% less water pollution.

AlumaFloor has a simple, neutral look that is useful in many applications. The product is very durable with an estimated life span of 100 years. In the case of AlumaFloor, it is more likely the building will be torn down before the flooring wears out.
