Georgia-Pacific Professional Announces enMotion® EPA-Compliant Towels
Recycled content towels for touchless automated dispensers offer cost-effective option for washrooms.
Atlanta, GA, March 15, 2009 --(PR.com)-- As part of its continued commitment to environmental stewardship, Georgia-Pacific Professional introduces enMotion® High Capacity EPA-Compliant Roll Towels. Available in brown or white, the towels provide customers a high-quality, affordable washroom solution that is thick and soft to the touch. The new towels are the latest addition to the enMotion family of touchless dispensing options.
Managers of high-traffic washrooms look for products that are economical and environmentally preferable. The enMotion EPA-Compliant Towels provide an effective solution when coupled with the enMotion dispenser - featuring durable towel dispensing accomplished with a simple wave of a hand. The high-capacity, 800-foot roll provides up to 1200 hand-dries for continuous dispensing with reduced service visits.
Each of the brown and white versions of the new towels meets the EPA’s comprehensive procurement guidelines of 40 percent post-consumer fiber. Additionally, the new brown EPA-Compliant Towel is one of several Georgia-Pacific Professional products that are EcoLogo™ certified.
“Today’s marketplace has led our customers to become more environmentally aware,” said Dan Silk, vice president-environmental sustainability of Georgia-Pacific Professional. “Georgia-Pacific Professional’s new EPA compliant towels, paired with the enMotion dispenser, are an example of how we are providing solutions to decrease environmental impact. By design, enMotion dispensers offer source reduction benefits, and when coupled with the new recycled towels, the environmental benefit is even greater.”
The enMotion EPA-Compliant Towels are further examples of Georgia-Pacific Professional’s commitment to creating products and systems that are operationally effective and offer hygiene and environmental benefits to consumers. Together, the enMotion EPA-Compliant Towels and enMotion automated touchless wall-mount dispensers provide attributes consistent with Georgia-Pacific Professional’s Green by Design™ program. Applicable Georgia-Pacific Professional products include Green By Design performance labels that allow consumers to easily understand the environmental benefits associated with the use of such products. These labels align with the EPA’s 3 Rs of reduce, reuse and recycle.
To ensure a positive customer experience and seamless transition to the new product, the enMotion EPA Compliant Towels are designed to fit in the enMotion automated touchless wall-mount dispensers and the enMotion Impulse 10 dispensers. The towel dispenser is available for sublease from authorized distributors. Please visit www.gppro.com for more information on this product and other enMotion products.
