Yes. Underlay manufacturers now offer products and programs focused on recycling, lower-waste manufacturing and reduced reliance on virgin materials. Dunlop's EnviroFirst material, for example, describes recycling and sustainability initiatives across its flooring-underlay business, and its Renu material is positioned as a lower-footprint underlay option. When comparing products, look beyond the word 'eco' and ask what the underlay is made from, whether recycled or renewable content is used, what happens to manufacturing waste, and whether any environmental certification applies to the exact product. Current certification should always be checked because product ranges and programs can change.
