Reportedly, Home Depot (HD) has named Nike Grind as the 2021 Environmental Partner of the Year. Many things go into Nike shoes, from foam cushions for feet, rubber provides traction and accents made with plastics, and leather and colorful textiles to complete the look. These different elements can create manufacturing scraps and defective test shoes that need to be disposed of creating millions of pounds of waste.
Nike Grind program diverts this shoe and material waste away from landfills and changes them into a variety of new products, including gym flooring tiles, and carpet cushions and which are sold at The Home Depot.
“We’re proud to partner with companies like Nike Grind to bring quality, affordable products to our customers that have a reduced environmental footprint. Working with Nike Grind allows us to create a more sustainable future,” stated Ron Jarvis, The Home Depot’s vice president of environmental innovation.
