Trend Group and Granite Transformations have partnered with Kohler to further each company’s eco-friendly mission of keeping unnecessary waste out of landfills. With this collaboration, Kohler provides pre-consumer porcelain from its bath and sink manufacturing to be repurposed for the production of Trend’s newest line of exclusive granite surfaces.
This two-year partnership has resulted in the creation of Trend products #1606 and #1607, also referred to as Terra Chiara and Terra di Siena by Granite Transformations. These surfaces feature varying flecks of gold, brown, black and white and are made with up to 51 percent of Kohler porcelain products, along with recycled glass and granite. This cooperative effort has kept nearly one million pounds of porcelain out of landfills so far this year.
“Trend Group is proud to partner with Kohler Co., incorporating their unused materials into our exclusive products to create stylish and dependable surfaces for home and commercial building and remodeling projects,” said Mark Johnson, CEO of Trend and Granite Transformations. “This collaboration mirrors our mission to be one of the world’s largest producers of decorative glass and engineered surfaces, using advanced technology to create inspiring surfaces that enable dreams for beautiful and sustainable environments.”
