AFPF Carpet Cushion Supplier Questionnaire

Response needed no later than September 5

We are interested in documenting ways in which individual member companies have

tied in to AFPF’s carpet cushion program, experienced some benefit, seen favorable changes, or put resources into carpet cushion since the program began January 2000.

Please use the following questions as a guideline to responding, but any response will be greatly appreciated. If you’d rather do this as a phone interview with Helen Sullivan, that’s fine, too – whatever is easier for you!

We need at least a paragraph from each company by September 5. Your comments will impact continued funding of the program!
