Why Sustainable Flooring Is on the Rise in 2025
Some trends come and go. Others reshape how we live.
In 2025, flooring is having a quiet revolution and it’s all about doing better with what we bring into our homes. Materials that last longer. Designs that tread lighter. Choices that are smarter, not just trendier.
Across the Northern Rivers, more homeowners are thinking about the story behind their floors. Where it came from. How it was made. And what it says about the kind of home they want to build.
It’s not about going full green warrior, it’s about knowing your flooring can look good, work hard, and still be a little kinder to the planet. And when your floors are made to last, waste less, and carry less environmental impact, that’s not just better for the planet, it’s better value for you, too.
At Carpets on the Move, we’ve been backing trusted carpet suppliers, exploring sustainable materials, and helping customers make more conscious choices without compromising on style, practicality, or price.
Plant-Based Carpet Innovation: Why Triexta Leads the Way
Not all carpets are created equal. And in 2025, the spotlight is on flooring that can do more, with less impact.
That’s where Triexta comes in. Made from Sorona® polymer, a partly plant-based fibre, Triexta carpets strike a smart balance between performance, durability, and sustainability.
Crafted in Australia by Godfrey Hirst, the Triexta range is built for real life, muddy feet, wild pets, spilled juice, and no stress. These carpets resist stains permanently and clean with just water.
That’s why at Carpets on the Move, we proudly recommend Triexta to families who want the best of both worlds: modern comfort with a lighter footprint.
As local carpet suppliers and installers, we help homeowners across the Northern Rivers choose flooring that works hard and lasts, without blowing the budget.
Vinyl Plank Flooring with a Green Edge
Vinyl flooring is fast becoming one of the most eco-conscious choices for 2025.
Today’s vinyl and hybrid floors are more durable, low-emission, and recyclable than ever. And when a floor lasts longer and wastes less, that’s better for the planet and your pocket.
At Carpets on the Move, we offer a range of options designed with sustainability in mind. A standout is the Karndean Looselay Originals Range – a 100% recyclable collection of wood-look and stone-look flooring that installs quickly, with no glue, no mess, and less material waste.
It’s easy to clean, stylish, and perfect for homes that want both function and sustainability.
As vinyl plank flooring experts, we’ll help you explore samples from our mobile carpet showroom and find a solution that looks great and treads lighter.
Eco-Friendly Doesn’t Mean Expensive
There’s a myth that sustainable flooring comes with a luxury price tag, but that’s not the case anymore.
At Carpets on the Move, we offer affordable flooring services that align with eco goals. Our range includes durable, low-impact carpets and vinyl that perform well and age better, meaning less frequent replacements and more value over time.
