Highly focused on large-scale biodiversity
Loss of biodiversity is an area of great concern and increasing attention. At Ege Carpets, we’ve incorporated biodiversity into our company focus. In the area near our buildings in Herning, Denmark, we’ve launched a large-scale project covering more than 90 acres to increase biodiversity over time together with the Danish Nature Fund and Herning Municipality.
Walking the talk since 1996
At Ege Carpets, we’ve been dedicated to sustainability and social responsibility since 1996. Not because laws and regulations have forced us to do so, but because we believe it’s the right and responsible thing to do. Our efforts and commitment to sustainable business development cover an extensive and constantly evolving list of big and small initiatives.

We offer climate-compensated carpets where you can contribute to a carbon neutral future. Mangroves reduce up to five times more CO2 emissions than other trees in the rainforests while also protecting coastal areas from extreme weather conditions.
A few years ago, we initiated a small biodiversity project by sowing fauna stripes behind our buildings in Herning, Denmark. We’re now going all-in and have launched a large-scale rewilding project in collaboration with parties that include Herning Municipality and the Danish Nature Fund. More than 90 acres of land will be released to grow back to its original wild nature.
