Designing sustainable practices.

Versa Designed Surfaces was one of the first companies to adopt water-based inks and to make its entire product line low VOC.

In 2006, the global manufacturer invented the first recycling technology for post-consumer content wallcovering. Second-Look has won six awards from the A&D community. 

It was the mid-1990s when Versa Designed Surfaces CEO Phil Tarullo began searching for ways to improve Versa Designed Surfaces’ environmental footprint, and to model that example for the wallcovering industry.
Water and energy reduction remains a key focus for the company, as it applies to NSF342. As customers are asking for more product transparency, Versa Designed Surfaces products now have a Global EPD for most constructions and HPD for all products.
