Sustainability and Mosa

Mosa is the first ceramic tile company in the world to have gained Cradle to Cradle Certified® Gold certification for nearly its entire tile collection. Mosa’s externally-validated life-cycle analysis (LCA) supports the sustainable character of our tiles. The Cradle to Cradle label enjoys widespread recognition and contributes to positive scores for Dutch and international green building labels such as LEED, BREEAM, DGNB, and HQE. In various (inter)national databases, the impact of Mosa tiles on these sustainability labels is clarified.

Cradle to Cradle

From design to production process, Mosa focuses intensively on sustainability in the sense of Cradle to Cradle. On the basis of five main criteria, we strive to reduce waste, to save energy, and to take social responsibility: pure raw materials, great recycling potential, low energy consumption, environmentally-friendly water management, and good terms and conditions of employment.
