by Rebecca Walker — April 5, 2010—Pro-Link, Inc., a janitorial buying and marketing group, has launched an Environmental Savings Calculator that can help end users determine how many plastic bottles are being saved when they select more sustainable floor pads.
Pro-Link has been developing green and more sustainable products such as floor pads for a number of years. The companys 100 percent polyester floors pads made from recycled plastic bottles are one product line example.
The Calculator, which complements Pro-Links “Its Easy to be Green” pads program, is available electronically on the companys Web site.
Using the calculator is simple. Select the number and sizes of pads currently being used, from 7¾-inch pads to 28-inch pads. The system calculates the number of plastic bottles that have been recycled into floor pads and saved from ending up in landfills.
For more information, or to access the calculator, see the Pro-Link Web site.
