Armed with ISO 14001 certification, first linoleum manufacturer in the East weaves Eco Spirit ideologies as more than 70 per cent of its products contribute to a low-carbon society
Throughout its nearly century-old history, TOLI has pioneered a series of breakthroughs in commercial and residential interior products. Known as the first linoleum manufacturer in the East, TOLI’s trailblazing innovations include carpet tiles with vinyl backing for easy installation and wallpaper made from non-exhaustible resources.
“We adopt new technologies in our products and create designs featuring the Japanese sense of beauty and spirit,” says president Motohiro Nagashima.
TOLI ranks among the top 15 flooring manufacturers worldwide. It specialises in vinyl tiles and sheets, carpet tiles, wall covering and curtains. Nearly 60 per cent of its business is in the commercial segment, particularly health care, education and office spaces. For its residential business unit, TOLI supplies contractors and renovation firms with bathroom interiors and other vinyl flooring products, in addition to well-received wall covering and curtains. Its carpet tiles for residential use are marketed mostly through e-commerce and do-it-yourself channels.
Armed with ISO 14001 certification, TOLI weaves its Eco Spirit ideologies into its manufacturing process. More than 70 per cent of its products contribute to a low-carbon society. All its carpet tiles, made of 100 per cent nylon, bear the Carpet and Rug Institute Green Label Plus seal. Its post-consumer recycled carpet tiles are Eco Mark-certified by the Japan Environment Association.
The company continuously invests in research and development to broaden its range of environment-friendly offerings. Its NW (No Wax) vinyl flooring series does not require waxing maintenance for up to 50 years. It also developed carpets made from recycled materials such as nylon from airbags.
