<h3><strong>We Have Something Exciting to Declare.</strong></h3>

<p>In a marketplace increasingly focused on environmental considerations and issues around sustainability, Godfrey Hirst are incredibly proud to have products officially approved Declare® LBC Red List Free.</p>

<p>The International Living Future Institute (ILFI), and local affiliate the Living Future Institute of Australia (LFIA), are organisations committed to driving sustainable change in the Australian Built environment through the development of leading edge programs, that are designed to radically change our approach to building and construction.</p>

<p>Predicated on creating a healthier built environment, the Declare® program delivers clear, unambiguous information about building material specifications. Participating manufacturers are required to disclose a Product’s entire constituent chemical composition to a threshold of 100-parts-per-million; essentially creating a ‘nutrition’ label of ingredients.</p>

<h3><strong>A product transparency program</strong></h3>

<p>Each Declare® label is compared against a list of worst-inclass materials, better known as the Red List. Chemicals on the Red List can pose an increased risk of:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Polluting the environment</li>
	<li>Bio-accumulation of contaminants progressing up the food chain</li>
	<li>Negative health implications for factory personnel, construction industry workers and building occupants</li>
</ul>

<p>Aware of our role in developing products that homeowners can comfortably put in their homes, we worked with our entire supply chain to identify, source and utilise the healthiest possible manufacturing ingredients. When we were confident our products met the stringent sustainability and toxic free chemical standards, we applied for LFIA Declare® approval.</p>

<h3><strong>The Declare® initiative has three declaration statuses:</strong></h3>

<ul>
	<li><strong>LBC Red List Free</strong> - Complete ingredient disclosure revealing ZERO Red List chemicals</li>
	<li><strong>LBC Red List Approved</strong> - Where chemicals or product ingredients have no available public information, or a manufacturer is unable to publicly identify an ingredient due to proprietary registration. Products may potentially contain Red List chemicals, which, if identified, will be highlighted in orange</li>
	<li><strong>Declared</strong> - This base level of transparency, while revealing a product’s ingredients, will nevertheless contain some Red List ingredients, which will also be highlighted in orange</li>
</ul>

<p>Many Feltex carpets are Declare Red List Free approved for a healthier home environment</p>

<p>In a marketplace increasingly focused on environmental consideration and issues around sustainability, Feltex carpets are incredibly proud to have products officially approved Declare™ Red List Free.  You might have heard of ‘material health’, a term used to describe how healthy a building product is for you and the overall environment. When it comes to material health, it’s what’s on the inside that matters most. Leading the way in healthier carpet™, Feltex broadloom wool carpets are all officially approved Declare™ Red List Free.</p>

<h3>What’s The Red List?</h3>
<p><a href="https://living-future.org/lbc/red-list/">The LBC Red List</a> is a register of manufacturing ingredient ‘worst in class’ such as BPA, PVC, fluorocarbons, added formaldehyde, VOC’s and phthalates. Achieving the Red List Free approval guarantee that a product does not contain Red List chemicals.</p>

<h3>Why It’s Important?</h3>
<p>Interior finishes and furnishings can contain Red List pollutants. Acting as a ‘nutrition label’ for building materials, Declare™ Red List Free is the gold standard of environmental approval and product transparency. Carpets with the Red List Free approval offer absolute peace of mind for anyone looking to create a healthier, safer and more sustainable home.</p>

<h3>How Did We Achieve Approval?</h3>
<p>To achieve this, we worked with our entire supply chain to identify, source and utilise healthier manufacturing ingredients. The entire chemical composition of the carpets were scrutinised to a threshold of 100-parts-per-million (100ppm); essentially creating a ‘nutrition’ label of ingredients. The result? A Declare™ Red List Free approval on all Feltex broadloom wool carpets the highest and best rating available for material health.</p>

<h3>The Nutrition Label For Building Materials</h3>
<p>Declare™ Red List Free approved products offer full transparency, providing you with peace of mind that you are selecting a healthy building product for a healthier and safer home. With the transparency of the Declare™ Red List Free program, you can make an informed decision to select a floorcovering that creates a safe and healthier home environment.</p>

<h3>There Are Three Levels Of Approval:</h3>
<b>Declared (good)</b>
<p>This base level of transparency, while revealing a product’s ingredients, will nevertheless contain some Red List ingredients, which will be highlighted.</p>
<b>Red List Approved (better)</b>
<p>Where chemicals or product ingredients have no available public information, or a manufacturer is unable to publicly identify an ingredient due to proprietary registration. Products may potentially contain Red List chemicals which if identified, will be highlighted in orange.</p>
<b>Red List Free (best)</b>
<p>Complete ingredient disclosure revealing no Red List chemicals at levels at or above 100ppm or 0.01 percent.</p>

<p>Feltex broadloom wool carpets achieve the highest and best Declare Red List Free approval™.</p>

<h3>Wonders in Wool</h3>
<p>The natural beauty of wool stems from the inherent complexity of the fibre itself, evolved to protect sheep, no matter the conditions! That’s why we still wear wool, sleep with wool, insulate with wool and enjoy walking on wool.</p>

<h3>Effortless Elegance for Every Season</h3>
<p>As the days grow warmer, transform your home into a sanctuary of refined, effortless cool with Feltex designer wool carpets. While often associated with winter warmth, wool’s remarkable versatility makes it the ultimate choice for all seasons. In spring and summer, wool’s natural temperature-regulating properties work to maintain an ideal indoor climate, keeping your space refreshingly cool even on the hottest days. Its breathable fibres promote air circulation, minimising trapped heat and moisture.</p>
<p>Beyond its climate control benefits, wool absorbs humidity to create a fresh, crisp atmosphere, while its hypoallergenic qualities ensure a healthier, purer air quality.  Luxuriously soft yet incredibly durable, wool is a timeless option that harmonises with the ebb and flow of the seasons.</p>
<p>With Feltex wool carpets, you’re not just choosing flooring—you’re investing in year-round elegance, comfort, and an 
 environment that feels as good as it looks.  Experience the luxury of nature’s finest with the perfect balance of style and function. </p>

<h3>Finest Quality Natural Fibre</h3> 
<p>Feltex wool carpets are made from the finest natural wool fibres which are renewable and biodegradable.</p>
<p>A renewable material, wool is shorn from sheep every 9-12 months and produced by sheep consuming a totally renewable resource - grass.<p>
<p>As a natural resource, wool fibre is biodegradable. When wool fibre is disposed of, it will naturally decompose in soil in a matter of months or years, slowly releasing valuable nutrients back into the earth.<p>

<h3>Natural Insulation and Humidity Control</h3>
<p>Wool carpet is naturally insulative with humidity control for a comfortable indoor environment, making it cooler in summer and warmer in winter.</p>
<p>Wool is a natural hygroscopic insulator. This means your wool carpet can absorb up to 30% - 40% of its weight in moisture without becoming wet to touch. This reduces the dampness in the air, making your home a drier and healthier place to live.</p>
<p>In cold, damp conditions (high relative humidity) moisture is absorbed by wool and heat is given off. In warm dry conditions, moisture is released by wool, resulting in a cooling effect. How well your carpet insulates largely depends on how much air it can trap. </p>
<p>Because of wool’s natural inbuilt crimp, air is retained in millions of tiny pockets which provide an insulating effect, thus creating a comfortable home environment.</p>

<h3>Luxurious and Hypoallergenic</h3>
<p>Wool carpets are naturally luxurious and hypoallergenic making them both aesthetic and suitable for those with allergies.</p>
<p>Ideal for allergy and asthma sufferers, wool does not promote the growth of bacteria, mould and mildew.This reduces the likelihood of spores, mycotoxins and volatile organic compounds from developing in the home, helping to prevent allergies and respiratory problems.</p>
<p>Wool fibre also deters the growth of dustmites – the most common single cause of asthma.</p>

<p>Because of wool’s natural inbuilt crimp, air is retained in millions of tiny pockets which provide an insulating effect, thus creating a comfortable environment for you and your family.</p>

<h3>Natural Stain Resistance and Easy Maintenance</h3> 
<p>Wool carpet is a very practical option in terms of cleaning and maintenance. It is naturally resistant to dirt and household stains.</p>

<h3>Hypoallergenic</h3>
<p>Wool carpet is ideal for allergy and asthma sufferers  as it does not promote the growth of bacteria, mould and mildew.</p>

<p>This reduces the likelihood of spores, mycotoxins and volatile organic compounds from developing in the home, helping to prevent allergies and respiratory problems.</p>

<p>Wool fibre also deters the growth of dustmites – the most common single cause of asthma.</p>

<h3>The Natural Performer</h3><p>You can live worry free with this soft, high-performing triexta carpet that is ideal for busy family households.  Constructed with high performing and partially renewably sourced materials, triexta offers exceptional stain, soil, wear and fade resistance. It is also incredibly soft and cleans with just water.</p>


<h3>Invest Wisely in Your Home</h3>
<p>Your carpet represents a substantial investment and you want it to look good for years to come. Most Triexta carpets are rated "residential extra heavy duty including stairs" so are ideal for heavy traffic areas.</p>

<h3>Ultra-Soft</h3>
<p>Ultra-soft technology brings a new level of comfort to your floor. Our Triexta ultra soft fibres provide exquisite textures, modern colours and quality construction. The soft feel is achieved by adding more individual filaments in each triexta fibre. Run your hands through the exceptionally soft fibres and feel the difference.</p>

<h3>Stain and Soil Protection</h3>
<p>Superior stain protection, built into every fibre so it never wears off. Cold water removes most household food and beverage spills.</p>

<p>We love all our carpets and know we shouldn’t have favourites… but with superior built-in stain resistance, simple cleaning with just water, protection from pet mishaps, wonderful softness and an amazing range of colours, Triexta by Redbook (formerly Redbook Green) is the top performer across the board making it perfect for busy family homes.</p>

<h3>Simply clean with water</h3>
<p>Triexta carpets have permanent stain resistance built into the core of each triexta fibre that will never wear or wash off. This means tough spills like red wine, tomato sauce and pet mishaps can be removed with just water. <a href="https://www.redbookcarpets.com/features/cleans-with-just-water">Learn More</a></p>

<h3>Pet friendly carpet</h3>
<p>Pets play a big role in our daily lives, and one of the biggest considerations for pet-owners is finding the right flooring. Built-in stain resistance protects pet mishaps from penetrating the fibre, along with an extra durable fibre structure and superior softness makes triexta carpets ideal for homes with pets. <a href="https://www.redbookcarpets.com/features/pet-friendly">Learn More</a></p>

<h3>Wonderfully Soft</h3>
<p>With the superior combination of softness and durability, triexta carpet will withstand the most demanding household environments and retain its beautiful look and feel over time. Unlike other fibres, triexta has a unique kinked molecular structure, this means it'll continue to bounce back into shape after vacuuming and years of foot traffic.<a href="https://www.redbookcarpets.com/features/wonderfully-soft">Learn More</a></p>
