Posted by Eco-Products on Aug 23rd 2023
This week, we’re pleased to release our 10th Annual Impact Report. In these pages, you’ll find renewed commitments to fighting the climate crisis, largely through continuous attention to how our activities up and down the value chain impact the planet and our communities.

While we have made a lot of progress in the last 10 years, the rapidly evolving landscape of climate risk, circular economy, and intertwined social inequities continues to challenge all of us. Thankfully, we have another 10 years (hopefully way more!) of goal setting, tracking, and reporting to look forward to.
Some highlights of this year’s report include:
PRODUCTS & SUPPLY CHAIN
We worked to remove a top grossing SKU from our bundle, in an effort to reduce contamination in compost streams
ZERO WASTE INFRASTRUCTURE
Our PZW team worked with composters and haulers around the country to co-create meaningful waste diversion success stories. They also helped expand compost infrastructure in 4 communities!
WASTE DIVERTING OPERATORS
We surpassed our goal by helping 26 US foodservice operators implement a FOH Waste Diversion Program.
PEOPLE
Eco-Products employees helped us exceed our goal with 71% of our employees taking advantage of their Paid Volunteer Time Off benefit. Additionally, Eco-Products donated about 1.2 million dollars worth of in-kind products and services to the responsible sourcing and waste diversion efforts of organizations within our communities.
OPERATIONS
Our rooftop solar panels generated 99.8% more electricity than we consumed in our headquarters in Boulder, Colorado. It feels good to maintain net-zero electricity consumption once again.
