Ray Anderson, CEO of InterfaceFLOR, took his company from a traditional petroleum-based carpet maker to a green pioneer whose name comes up frequently when people talk about merging deep sustainability
AND profitability

In his last years, Anderson created an ambitious program geared toward making Interface a zero-waste company.
