Did You Know Weisenbach Recycled Products Did That?

You may know a thing or two about Weisenbach Recycled Products, but did you know that we offer such a wide variety of recycled and environmentally preferable products that, chances are, there are at least a few items that will make our customers say, "I didn't know Weisenbach did that!"

At Weisenbach, we always strive to bring the best products to you.  We will not simply promote the latest fad items without first thoroughly researching the product to determine if it truly meets our green standards.  Many products simply do not pass muster.  If we can not find a product that is up to snuff, we will either create it ourselves, or have one of our trusted manufacturing partners create specific materials just for us.  For example:

Did you know that the paperboard used to make our hand fans (a Weisenbach signature product) is made exclusively for us?  We're talking 100% post-consumer recycled, 100% made in the USA paperboard.  Paperboard that enhances any design you create. Unlike a lot of the other stuff that is out there, the front of our paperboard is white and coated with a low-lustre finish while the back is un-coated and is also white.  This creates a dressier appearance, and is also quite useful, as it provides a place to collect email addresses, phone numbers and Facebook information from friends at your special event.

Our environmental education efforts don't end with recycled paper.  At Weisenbach, we also strive to promote and encourage pollution prevention (P2).  One often overlooked source of water pollution is nonpoint source pollution.  This is basically the pollution that occurs from everyday splashes and small spills that end up getting washed down the drain, such as motor oil that is accidentally spilled when someone does an oil change at their home. 

Did you know that Weisenbach also offers used oil jugs for curbside collection?  Our oil collection jugs are manufactured from at least 50% post-consumer high density polyethylene (HDPE-2) that comes from other plastic containers (primarily detergent bottles) collected at curbside.  With our used oil jugs and P2 accessories, customers can do everything from changing their own oil, draining their oil filter, and setting the used oil (and the oil filter) out for curbside collection...without spilling a drop.    

Some of our custom pollution prevention accessories include FitBig® funnels, which fit right in our used oil jugs, for clean, easy pouring or oil filter draining, and zip-close bags that fit around the jug neck to secure used oil filters for recycling.  To ensure a safe seal, customers can also purchase thumb lock caps.  These caps are child-resistant and compliant with Department of Transportation drop test specifications.   So even if you don't have curbside oil collection in your area, you can rest assured that your used oil will remain tightly secured inside the jug as it is transported to your local recycling facility.

These are just a few examples of some of the lesser known things that Weisenbach Recycled Products has to offer.  At Weisenbach, we currently offer nearly 1,000 recycled and environmentally preferable products to meet your needs.   We own 4 patents, 15 registered trademarks, and we have another 10 trademarks pending approval.  Our mad scientists are always working hard to create new products and materials that meet the ever-changing demands of our business and our world.
