The Milliken™ Way

Responsible Sustainable Manufacturing

We take full responsibility for sustainable manufacturing — from beginning to end. We address the waste that results from producing our products and commit to doing business with the highest ethical standards. We take environmental responsibility seriously. The first Milliken™ documented recycling policy was in the early 1900s, years before the Environmental Protection Agency was formed. To date, the company diverts 99 percent of its waste from landfills to places where it can be re-used or recycled. As a carbon negative-certified company, we capture and offset more carbon dioxide than we emit. A winner of the Ethisphere Magazine’s list of the “World Most Ethical Companies” since its inception, we take pride in doing good in the world by giving back to our community, sourcing responsible suppliers and inventing products that do good.
