Why Kentwood
Our Commitment to Better Floors, Inside and Out
When you lay down a Kentwood floor, you're laying a foundation built on industry-defining standards in sustainability, health, and quality. It's a proprietary screening and verification program we call Good Foundations, shaped by our values, guided by science, and evolving with every innovation. For over 30 years, it’s been our North Star, ensuring the floors you live on are as responsibly made as they are beautifully designed.
Breathe Easy
Healthier Products for Healthier Spaces
We build floors that support the well-being of people and the planet. Every Kentwood product meets regulated formaldehyde emissions standards (CARB Phase II, TSCA Title VI, CANFER) and is voluntarily certified for low VOC emissions under CA Section 01350 and GREENGUARD Gold, one of the strictest indoor air quality standards in the world. Recognized by LEED, WELL, and other leading green building programs, this certification reflects our commitment to healthier environments, from the forest to your home.
Tested, Trusted
Verified Quality from Start to Finish
Good Foundations means peace of mind. Every Kentwood floor undergoes more than 30 quality control checks throughout the manufacturing process, from the sawmill to the warehouse. We regularly test our adhesives, finishes, and acoustics with third-party labs to validate their safety, durability, and performance. Because your reputation, and ours, depends on it.
