Ege Carpets: product range and EPD coverage

Who is Ege Carpets

Founded in Denmark, Ege Carpets A/S designs and manufactures textile floor coverings for commercial spaces. The portfolio spans wall‑to‑wall broadloom, modular carpet tiles and planks, plus custom rugs and runners. Across colorways, patterns and backings, the total SKU count sits in the hundreds.

What they sell, in plain categories

• Wall‑to‑wall carpets for hospitality and workplace, including wool and PA6 Econyl options.
• Modular tiles and planks using PA6 yarns on felt or hard backings.
• Custom rugs and runners cut from their broadloom platforms.

These families map neatly to common project scopes in offices, hotels, retail and culture venues.

EPD coverage at a glance

Coverage is solid across core lines. Ege has recent, program‑operator EPDs for modular tiles and for wall‑to‑wall platforms. Examples include Una Level tile with EN 15804 compliance valid to October 29, 2029 (EPD International, 2024) and Highline 750 and ReForm Maze tiles valid to December 18, 2029 (EPD International, 2024). Their wool broadloom Highline 1100 carries EN 15804 EPDs to March 28, 2030 for WT and AB backings respectively (EPD International, 2025). Earlier Denmark‑program EPDs for Highline Carré, Loop and 1100 remain valid to 2027 (EPD Danmark, 2022).

• Una Level tile: publication 2024‑11‑21, valid until 2029‑10‑29. (EPD International, 2024)
• Highline 750 and ReForm Maze tiles: publication 2024‑12‑18, valid until 2029‑12‑18. (EPD International, 2024)
• Highline Wool 1100 AB and WT: publication 2025‑03‑28, valid until 2030‑03‑28. (EPD International, 2025)
• Highline Carré AB, Loop AB, 1100 AB: issue 2022, valid to 2027. (EPD Danmark, 2022)

Where EPDs likely cover most specs

If your scope is carpet tile or standard wall‑to‑wall constructions, you will usually find an EPD match among Ege’s modular lines and Highline platforms. That keeps projects eligible for product‑specific Type III credit pathways under LEED, since LEED accepts EPDs consistent with ISO 14025 and EN 15804 or ISO 21930 (USGBC, 2024).

Potential gaps to watch

We did not find rugs‑specific EPDs listed by program operators. Rugs cut from broadloom may be technically similar to the parent EPD, yet many reviewers ask for an explicit declaration that names the delivered product. If rugs or runners are a hero item in your hospitality package, that is the first place to tighten documentation so you do not get swapped for a competitor with a named EPD.

Another recurring edge case is entrance systems. Ege focuses on carpet; entrance matting EPDs in practice often come from specialty brands. For example, Forbo’s Coral ranges list multiple current EPDs with expiries extending through 2029 on their download center, which some teams prefer when an entrance system is part of the flooring scope (Forbo, 2025).

Who they meet in the market

The specification set Ege encounters most often includes Interface, Tarkett DESSO, Milliken, Shaw Contract and Mohawk Group for tiles and broadloom. Interface and Tarkett publicly host product‑specific EPD libraries for carpet tiles, which helps them convert EPD‑conditioned specs in corporate and education work. You can browse representative EPD lists on Interface’s site for reference without breaking a sweat. (Interface, 2025)

Why EPDs matter commercially for textile flooring

Many owners now treat product‑specific, third‑party verified EPDs as a pass‑fail gate. Without one, design teams must model conservative impacts or apply a penalty, which makes substitution far more likely. LEED v4.1 and v5 guidance confirms that product‑specific Type III EPDs are eligible so long as they conform to ISO 14025 and EN 15804 or ISO 21930, and at least cradle‑to‑gate scope for MR Option 1 (USGBC, 2024). The paperwork sounds dull, but it unlocks specs. One mid‑sized project can repay the effort fast.

If you produce at Ege’s scale, here is the play

• Map product families to PCRs that peers already use. That keeps reviewers comfortable and reduces back‑and‑forth.
• For custom rugs, publish either a parent EPD that explicitly names the cut‑to‑order deliverable or a compact portfolio EPD that captures the options most often sold.
• Keep a simple index page of every EPD and its validity date. Ege already maintains a documentation hub, which is the right idea. Link it in your sales decks and specifications. (Ege Carpets certificates and documentation)

Choose an LCA partner who will actually collect data from your mills and ERP rather than handing you spreadsheets. That is how timelines compress from months to weeks, and how reviews stay smooth. Data wrangling is the bottleneck, not the modeling software.

What we would do next, fast

• Confirm whether rugs and runners can be formally covered by extending existing broadloom EPD boundaries. If not, publish a short‑form EPD that names them.
• For North American pursuits, keep a one‑pager that maps EN 15804 EPDs to LEED MR credit language. It saves teams hours in submittals.
• Refresh any expiring 2027 Denmark EPDs on a rolling basis so specifiers never see a looming date on a key line item.

Bottom line for specability

Ege is broadly covered where it counts, especially tiles and flagship broadloom. The quickest win is to make rugs and runners undeniably “EPD‑named” so hospitality packages are bulletproof. Do that, keep renewals on schedule, and Ege stays on the shortlist without needing to drop price. Sounds basic, but it’s definately what moves specs.
