  Eco-Products...Green Facts
 
 

  Green Facts
   
 
 
     
 
 
When you buy green alternative products you really are making a difference. Here are a few green facts concerning the products our customers buy and how these products help conserve natural resources and reduce dependency on foreign oil.
 
In one year, Eco-Products customers make a difference by saving:
  • 742,414 gallons of gasoline - enough to drive around the earth 673 times.
  • 13,478,914 pounds of greenhouse gases
  • 8,629,476 kW hours of energy - enough to power the average American household for 810 years

Vegetable starch and sugarcane are eco-friendly alternatives to plastic and tree Paper: 

  • Mature every season
  • 100% compostable
  • Petroleum free, non-toxic
  • breaks down in 45-120 days under certain conditions (heat, moisture, movement)

Conventional products made from petroleum can sometimes be recycled, but most of them end up going to a landfill. Because landfills are specifically designed to NOT allow waste to break down, everything that goes to a landfill will take thousands of years to decompose.

Eco-Products helps the environment by using renewable resources that greatly reduce the amount of waste going to landfills by creating compostable products.

According to a study done by Penn State University, 34 percent of landfill waste is composted organic material and 33 percent is paper. Thus, 67 percent of total landfill waste can be easily composted and diverted.

 

We update this list regularly so check back often.
