The Carpet America Recovery Effort announces the launch of its web site at www.carpetrecovery.com. CARE is a joint industry-government effort to develop market-based solutions for the recycling and use of post-consumer carpet.

CARE was established in January 2002 as a result of a Memorandum of Understanding for Carpet Stewardship (MOU), a national agreement signed by members of the carpet industry, representatives from all levels of government, and non-governmental organizations.

CARE is funded and administered by the carpet industry.
