Two Companies Receive Awards of Excellence from CARE

The awards were given during CARE’s annual conference.

Representatives from Starnet Worldwide Commercial Flooring Partnership and ReSource Commercial Flooring Network were presented with the Awards of Excellence from the Carpet America Recovery Effort (CARE) at the carpet recycling group's annual conference.

The awards recognize the two companies' commitment to CARE, and most recently, their support of CARE's Aligned Dealer membership program. Last year, both Starnet and ReSource made it possible for their dealers to join CARE as individual members.

"CARE is very grateful to both Starnet and ReSource for supporting our mission to divert carpet from the landfill," says Georgina Silorski, CARE’s executive director. "Through their combined efforts, over 200 dealers have been able to demonstrate their concern for the environment by becoming members and actively participating in CARE."
