Online Eco Store Provides One-Stop-Shop for Everything Earth Friendly

Berlin, CT December 1, 2008 - Everybody loves a hot cup of coffee at work, and most of us succumb to takeout food at least once in a while. Wouldn’t it be nice to enjoy our favorite food and drink without feeling guilty about the environmentally unfriendly tableware it usually entails?

The Green Supply Company has opened their online doors and begun shipping their products internationally. Their product line includes biodegradable and compostable plates, bowls, hot cups, cold cups, cutlery, takeout containers, and trash bags. They also carry and distribute many lines including Green Wave, Trellis Earth, and Vegware products. All their products are biodegradable or compostable and created from natural materials.

Christian Coughlin and Ryan Zelek, decided to advance environmental activism in a way that meets the present consumer needs. Today, their brainchild, The Green Supply Company, LLC, distributes environmentally friendly and affordable tableware to consumers, businesses, and schools. They distribute to both end users and retail outlets.

“Too many citizens just talk about the problems that non-biodegradable plastics are causing for our landfills, without taking the steps to correct them,” Coughlin points out. “With the help of our company’s products, we hope to increase the environmental consciousness of customers and, in turn, positively impact the world we live in for current and future generations.”

In addition to international product distribution, The Green Supply Company is active in working with corporations to find the best options for their needs. “Everyday a new product is introduced to the market. We test and review products everyday to ensure we are offering the best products to our clients,” notes Zelek.

Over 25,000,000 styrofoam cups go into landfills every year. Styrofoam makes up 25% of our landfill space and is not recyclable, so any cup you use today will still be around 500 years from now. Incinerating styrofoam is not an acceptable alternative to burying the impervious material, as it gives off over 90 different hazardous chemicals, including styrene vapors and dioxin.

“Our most unique product is one created from Bagasse, a waste material is recycled, made into useful tableware, then composted into nutrient rich soil,” says Coughlin. Bagasse, one of the most popular offerings, is a byproduct of sugar cane which is made from the dry fibrous residue left after the stalks have been crushed to extract juice. Bagasse plates and bowls are created by a high-heat, high-pressure process that requires the use of considerably less energy than that used when pulping wood for similar paper products. These pieces are remarkably durable and especially well suited for holding hot, wet or oily foods.

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, paper and paper board products, which include paper plates and food packaging, constitute the largest portion of municipal solid waste. The average individual discards about four pounds of waste material each day. Although recycling materials helps to alleviate this burden on our environment, the most preferred method of waste management is to reduce the generation of waste at the source through waste prevention. Waste prevention includes seeking products and packaging that are free of toxics and redesigning products to use fewer raw materials in production.
