Sweden – Circular Carpet Policy & EPD-Driven Office Flooring Procurement

Meta Title: Office Carpet Sweden | EPD, Nordic Swan & Circular Flooring Supplier

Meta Description: How Swedish facility managers source office carpet tiles under circular economy rules—EPD, Nordic Swan, recycled content and take-back compliance explained.

Sweden is arguably the strictest circular procurement market in the Nordics. Since 2022, construction products without LCA-based EPD cannot enter public projects, and the Green Claims Directive makes vague “eco” wording legally risky.

For office carpet buyers in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, the shortlist looks like this:

  • Mandatory docs: EPD (EN 15804+A2), LCA report, Nordic Swan Ecolabel preferred
  • Material floor: ≥25% post-consumer recycled nylon (ESPR 2026 threshold)
  • Backing: PVC-free, bitumen-free, recyclable mono-material preferred
  • Take-back: Supplier must offer collection + recycling scheme (EPR aligned)
  • Common spec: 500×500 mm solution-dyed nylon tile, 6–7 mm pile, NRC ≥0.35, CRI Green Label Plus / low VOC

Tefloor supports Swedish distributors with EPD-ready tile series, Nordic Swan-applicable constructions, and documented recycled yarn content.
