Green Initiative
Sustainability Products
Ettore Products Company has allocated considerable resources to combat pollution waste through the removal of plastic from our packaging, raising awareness about the sustainability of our products, and incorporating recycled materials as necessary.
Priority Moving Forward
In 2022, Ettore Products Company prioritized educating our customers about our Green Initiative. Leveraging our 85-year legacy of innovation in the Window Cleaning Industry with the creation of the modern-day squeegee, we remain steadfast in our dedication to offering top-quality sustainable tools.
Our commitment goes beyond mere packaging redesign; we now guarantee that our packaging is recycled, in line with our objective of reducing environmental waste. Throughout the years, we've continuously strived to become an eco-friendly company.
And now, we're thrilled to announce that we're taking further steps to educate and drive meaningful action in promoting sustainability.
Statements We Are Trying To Execute
Sustainable
The longevity of our products is attributed to the high-quality materials used in our manufacturing, ensuring a simplified cleaning experiences.
Green
While our products are recyclable (ABS, Nylon, PP, and HDPE), it is essential to note that they are not constructed from recyclable materials.
Eco-Friendly
By opting for reusable products, you contribute to saving the planet by reducing waste pollution, and harmful chemicals.
Reusable
With our lifetime rubber, our products aid in reducing the consumption of single-use paper towels and other disposable items.
Measurements Taken To Achieve Goal
Redesign Packaging
In 2021, our packaging used an average of 644,300 units of plastic. However, with the recent redesign, we have successfully eliminated all plastic from our packaging.
Reduction in Carbon Footprint
By removing plastic from our packaging, we have doubled the product capacity per container, effectively reducing the carbon footprint per shipment.
