Department of Management Services Division of State Purchasing September 14th & 15th, 2006 EPA Web Site Along with the many benefits of carpet come a number of environmental considerationsincluding issues of material use, production wastes, indoor air quality, and ultimately, carpet disposal. According to carpet industry estimates, approximately 4.7 billion pounds of carpet were discarded in the United States in 2002; most years, carpet accounts for over 1 percent of all municipal solid waste by weight, or about 2 percent by volume. The bulky nature of carpet and the variety of materials used in its manufacture often create handling, collection, and recycling problems for local and state governments.

The bulky nature of carpet and the variety of materials used in its manufacture often create handling, collection, and recycling problems for local and state governments. According to industry estimates, only 3.8 percent of total carpet discards were recycled in the United States in Barriers to effective recycling of carpet include the lack of an established infrastructure for collection and processing of discarded carpet, especially from residential sources. In addition, carpet manufacturers and recyclers have been concentrated in the southeastern United States, resulting in logistical issues for carpet recycling in other parts of the country. Inadequate markets for some resins, such as nylon 6,6, are a concern as well.

This agreement established a 10-year schedule to increase the amount of recycling and reuse of post-consumer carpet and reduce the amount of waste carpet going to landfills.
