Composure
Tufted structured loop pile carpet tile with a non-directional pattern inspired by natural rock formations. Subtle tonal movement across a broad palette of neutrals, chalky pastels and brights, designed to flow across large floor areas without a visible lay direction.

The umbrella declaration covers tufted modular carpet tiles with CQuest Bio backing, PA6 pile with 75% recycled content, up to 1000 g/m² total pile weight. The staged 2.94 kgCO2e comes from the GUT/PRODIS data sheet for Composure CQuest Bio at 365 g/m² surface pile weight; LCA results scale linearly with pile weight, so the figure holds only for that construction. The declaration is additionally valid only while a current GUT/PRODIS licence for the product exists — a condition that expires independently of the 2030 date.

Comparison Status
The record contains the basic metadata required for a controlled comparison. Products must still perform the same function and use compatible units, PCRs and lifecycle scope.
Design & Specification Notes
Qualitative notes for early design discussion. Not product-specific EPD evidence, and not a basis for numerical comparison.
