Family Business Trumps Windex at Office Max, Saves Environment
While it may be a drop in the bucket compared to the oil spilling in the Gulf, Conserve Brand Tablet Cleaners, has come up with a way to save consumers money, keep hundreds if not thousands of trucks off the road each year, decrease trash by 75% and improve transportation efficiency by over 90%.
"With our simple new technology of cleaning products we don't add water. Water is delivered to your home, your office, your school and hotel and everywhere else that needs cleaning," says David Baumgarten, VP of Atlanta's Baumgarten's. "Why are we still carrying it all over the country when we have already paid for it to be delivered?"
By not putting water into the mix until it gets to the user, the technology allows the consumers to drop a tablet into a spray bottle. Four tablets come with each bottle equalling a gallon of cleaner once hydrated.
Certified by the DfE, the EPA's new program to compete with Green Seal Certification, Conserve Brand Glass cleaners are among the most environmentally preferred cleaners in the world.
Walmart has brought in the CEO of Patagonia to assist them in transitioning into a Greener company. They have proclaimed an interest in lowering packaging waste to be able to take 250,000 trucks off the road by 2015.
"With our Conserve Brand Cleaners we offer a 90% packaging reduction solution that still gets the cleaning job done well," touts Baumgarten. And best of all, our customers like Office Max sells them for nearly 50% of any liquid glass cleaning solution.
Office Max is now carrying Conserve Brand Cleaners nationally in the USA with shipping weight less than 90% of liquid cleaners.
