Tileshop

Founded in 1973, Tileshop has become one of the leading tile importers in California. Many of our tile lines manufactured abroad are conceived, designed and carried exclusively by us. We have established a direct working relationship with manufacturers which allows us to influence the design of new products in an ongoing effort to supply products which reflect the current trends and satisfy the demands of architects, designers and homeowners.

Environment

We selectively import from factories which manufacture under strict guidelines for environmental certification and compliance. Tileshop is proud to promote these factories that participate in the Eco-Label, Emas Green Building Italian Council programs. Some products are able to earn LEED MR credits 4.1 and 4.2.

• At Tileshop we are committed to environmental responsibility and have integrated the green philosophy into our work environment. A partial list of things we do to that end includes:
• • our main buildings in Berkeley and San Jose have solar panels and generate more electricity than they consume.
• • we recycle cardboard, paper, aluminum cans, glass, plastic materials and wooden pallets
• • we participate in the City of Berkeley composting program

Community Involvement
